Solomon, 2018

Photograph, 56 x 84cm

Solomon is part of an ongoing series of portraits of people who, like the artist, reside in Ireland without being of Irish descent. As an eclectic group, many find themselves fixated on their sense of national identity and belonging, simultaneously rejecting and embracing elements of their colliding worlds, while being an integral part of an ever-growing human mosaic in their adopted homeland.
