Selected Highlights
Joe Laverty: Artist Talk & Tour
Description
Join photographer Joe Laverty for a discussion on the landscape, people and traditions of Lough Neagh as he takes you through his photographic investigation ‘Shallow Waters’.
Tour is outdoors and lasts approximately 1 hour. Comfortable shoes advised.
About the Artist and Exhibition:
'Shallow Waters' aims to investigate the way myth and tradition sit alongside heavy industry and how closely connected they are, despite being at odds with each other. Through a photographic investigation of the landscape, its people and traditions, Laverty charts a thread of connection between the two opposing engagements with the shallow waters of Lough Neagh, as it negotiates multiple threats and regulatory negligence.
Joe Laverty is an Irish photographic artist and filmmaker having completed an MFA in Photography at Ulster University, Belfast in 2022. His work explores place and our human interaction with it, specifically focusing on marginal or overlooked areas within both urban and rural contexts.
