Ormston House is delighted to present Stuck, A Decomposition, a solo exhibition by Daniel Tuomey. The exhibition launches on Thursday, 20th February from 7–9pm and runs from 21st February – 26th April.
Although Georgian houses are a familiar sight in much of the Irish urban landscape, they are rarely thought of outside the antagonistic paradigms of a barrier to progress or a conservational responsibility. Conceived in response to the built heritage of Limerick, this exhibition encourages a deeper consideration of the impact that these houses, their spatial principles and aesthetic conventions, have had upon the Irish psyche. In particular Stuck, a decomposition is a rumination upon how these edifices are a constant reminder of our colonial past and our uncertain future.
