‘Citzens?’ Exhibiton at Rathfarnham Castle

Citzens?

An exhibiton of art works by Belinda Lofus and Manar Al Shouha about the difficultes suffered by those caught up in conflict and forced migraton, questons and possibilites about where we truly belong and what Home means.

Belinda Lofus is a descendant of Archbishop Chancellor Adam Lofus who commissioned the building of Rathfarnham Castle in the 1580s, and Manar al Shouha is a Syrian artst currently living in Dublin and seeking asylum. The show looks at the concept of citzenship.

Both Belinda and Manar exhibit a range of images about the difficultes suffered by those caught up in conflict and forced migraton. A common theme for both artsts is reclaiming images of those rendered partally or wholly invisible for different reasons. Citzens? Exhibiton takes place at Rathfarnham Castle, Dublin 14, D14 K3T6

October: Wednesday to Sunday and Bank Holiday Monday 10.30am – 5pm Ends: Oct 23, 2022 at 4:45pm Last admissions 45 minutes before closing. Admission free.
