Through a series of creative sessions at the Glucksman, artist Joe Caslin worked with a group of 35 women from diverse backgrounds to explore their understanding of home. The participants were given the opportunity to share their experiences, finding connections with other members of the group and exploring creative ways that their stories could be represented. The sessions encouraged the group to look at the power of portraiture to communicate ideas and reveal insights into the sitter. Together participants discussed posture, gesture, and symbolism, before putting all their learning into practice and sitting for a portrait with the artist.
These portraits will be on exhibition in the Global Hub, Nano Nagle Place.
