Exhibiton at Waterside Project Space
murmur

Aoife Collins' interdisciplinary practice explores the transience and mutability of objects, ideas and public personas, especially the filtering down from ‘highbrow’ to popular culture and the inherent changes of form and meaning that occur in these circumstances. In effect, her practice reflects on how history, culture and fashion collide, and on the multitude of different strategies of communication. Collins' work looks at the navigation of our cultural landscape, how cultural paraphernalia and ideas are disseminated and resonate with wide audiences. Collins question the function of materials, objects and images, as well as their potentiality to escape their positioning, and their ability to take on new identities.
