concept
"C'mere 'til I tell ya..." [a Dublin colloquialism] is a self-published photo-book [2017]. The book centers around Dublin’s Inner City and documents my personal journey [2009-2017] into exploring the streets in an attempt to capture the rawness of the capital itself, whilst celebrating the humour and resilience found in the everyday. The sequence of photographs can be experienced as an allegory of life, at times sombre but often playful and sarcastic in tone, akin to a dark visual poem that serves as a catalyst for conversation.
