Slabs is an ongoing, open-ended photographic project that uses damaged wallpaper pasting tables to display selected images from a personal archive spanning over 30 years, reflecting an ongoing struggle with the volume, value, storage, and meaning of photographic material amid the shift from analogue to digital practice. Through juxtaposed images that move between the personal and political, the work interrogates memory, authorship, and trust in technology, while situating a queer lived experience within profound social and cultural changes in Ireland.
