The essays, with layout by Language, are available online, in the gallery and broadcast on RTE’s Arena radio programme.

The second essay in the series responds to the group exhibition Display Show curated by Gavin Wade (with Celine Condorelli & James Langdon). Display Show initiates a set of artworks embedded with, and reliant upon, explicit conditions of display as a combination of functional attributes. The exhibition continues until Saturday 29th August 2015.
