Eimear Walshe: Mixed Messages from the Irish Republic

1 March - 25 May 2025
Tuesday–Sunday, 11am – 5pm

Exploring the love and grief for a land entangled in colonial legacies, revolution, rebellion and undelivered promise.

Through video and sculpture, Mixed Messages from the Irish Republic explores the love and grief for a land entangled in colonial legacies, revolution, rebellion, and undelivered promise.

Walshe explores how the impact of Irish land struggles have shaped sexual politics, property ownership and power in Ireland today. Their work is rooted in community and collaboration, playfully using forms of popular culture from infomercials to soaps to navigate urgent issues of housing precarity, national identity and activism.

This is Eimear Walshe’s first UK solo show, and includes new work Romantic Ireland (2024) alongside the multi-channel video and sculptural installation, which was presented at the Irish Pavilion for the 2024 Venice Biennale of Art.
