Kevin Fox

Kevin Fox is a photographer and lecturer at Griffith College, Dublin. He has an MA in Digital Arts from University of the Arts London, and a BA in Photography from D.I.T. Kevin has worked in photography since 2006. His art practice engages with communities in Derry and he is currently researching a project exploring institutional care in Ireland.

In 2017 Fox was commissioned by Photo Museum Ireland (formerly Gallery of Photography Ireland) to create a unique contemporary portrait of this border village in County Monaghan. A sustained process of engagement with the local community informed the development of the project.

Working over this extended period with the people of Drum enabled Fox to reveal a nuanced portrayal of the village and its people. His work has been exhibited in solo exhibitions across Ireland and is featured in the National Photography Collection at Photo Museum Ireland.
