Moyross Study was exhibited in the 2018 PhotoIreland Festival, and was selected to represent Ireland at Unseen Amsterdam as part of the inaugural FUTURES Platform. The artist’s long term research project, A Constant Parameter, was selected by an international jury to be part of New Irish Works and was presented for the first time at the PhotoIreland Festival (2019). Moyross Study is a response to Henri Lefebvre’s argument that space is not a natural given, but instead is a social construct based on economic systems, hierarchical power structures and the class system, which shapes human perception and limits agency and autonomy.

The project also considers Lynsey Hanley’s work Estates: An Intimate History (2007), in which the author describes the overwhelming sense of segregation that exists in communities situated in social housing developments such as Moyross.
