This is one of a series of five photographs made for an exhibition ‘season and evening and weather and history’ at the Douglas Hyde Gallery in 2016. Shot at dawn in the grounds of the Irish Museum of Modern Art, the photographs convey a time of liminality – an evocation of the ambivalence of dusk and dawn, the transitional hours between night and day.
