Text fragments, infused with climate anxiety, interrupt and reframe these scenes as fleeting and fragile. The series poses questions from an unnamed protagonist who considers the potential of the natural world as a site for recovery from trauma. Strands of queer thought are threaded through the series, unsettling conventions of nature writing and intertwining with fantasies of destruction and transformation. Together, these elements invite reflection on the traces we leave on the earth, and on the porous boundaries between body, environment, and disintegration.&#8221;- <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tulca.ie\/events\/2025\/11\/07-3\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">TULCA<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"819\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/caoimhin.xyz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/TUL1125SL050-819x1024.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-2120\" srcset=\"https:\/\/caoimhin.xyz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/TUL1125SL050-819x1024.jpeg 819w, https:\/\/caoimhin.xyz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/TUL1125SL050-240x300.jpeg 240w, https:\/\/caoimhin.xyz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/TUL1125SL050-768x960.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/caoimhin.xyz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/TUL1125SL050-1229x1536.jpeg 1229w, https:\/\/caoimhin.xyz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/TUL1125SL050-1638x2048.jpeg 1638w, https:\/\/caoimhin.xyz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/TUL1125SL050-480x600.jpeg 480w, https:\/\/caoimhin.xyz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/TUL1125SL050-scaled.jpeg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 819px) 100vw, 819px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Beulah Ezeugo: \u2018This year, TULCA engages artists whose practices move across personal, physical, and psychic boundaries.

An image of Ireland\u2019s largest lake acts as a memory: being taken in 2022, before the lake\u2019s ecosystems collapse was visible. Speaking with &#8211; and against &#8211; the images are text pieces in the form of poetry and short stories. These reflect on the relief from trauma that immersion in the natural environment can bring but, because it is in distress itself, questions are raised for the protagonists about their sense of self and their place in the ecosystem. In the film, images and text unfurl across the two screens with fragmented depictions of the human figure trying to become part of the ecosystem again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-3 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"709\" data-id=\"2072\" src=\"https:\/\/caoimhin.xyz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/P1010530-1024x709.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-2072\" srcset=\"https:\/\/caoimhin.xyz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/P1010530-1024x709.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/caoimhin.xyz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/P1010530-300x208.jpg 300w, https:\/\/caoimhin.xyz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/P1010530-768x532.jpg 768w, https:\/\/caoimhin.xyz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/P1010530-1536x1064.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/caoimhin.xyz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/P1010530-2048x1418.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/caoimhin.xyz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/P1010530-600x415.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"704\" data-id=\"2073\" src=\"https:\/\/caoimhin.xyz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/P1010531-1024x704.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-2073\" srcset=\"https:\/\/caoimhin.xyz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/P1010531-1024x704.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/caoimhin.xyz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/P1010531-300x206.jpg 300w, https:\/\/caoimhin.xyz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/P1010531-768x528.jpg 768w, https:\/\/caoimhin.xyz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/P1010531-1536x1056.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/caoimhin.xyz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/P1010531-2048x1408.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/caoimhin.xyz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/P1010531-600x413.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Exhibited text pieces were re-designed to work within the book\u2019s framing, and the cadence of the two-screen film is visualised across still images- with the script formatted as it is performed and spoken.

Emerging out of their conversations and exchange of skills across the various technologies in their work, the images, objects, and animations they produce are often oriented towards the presentation of climate change in the media, with each artist exploring how ideas of \u2018nature\u2019 can be re-examined from a postcolonial and queer perspective.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>To be spat back out<\/em>&nbsp;revels in waste and excess, examining the expressions of excessive emotions as a queer strategy of resistance. Through storytelling, images and texts, reality bends to a breaking point; mirroring how trauma distorts, remakes and retells lived experience in its own image. The legacy of colonialism is examined as a material component of the climate crisis, and how the binary dynamics of indoor\/outdoor and private\/public spaces fail to imagine what is possible in the present.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Situated in relation to their practices, the exhibition employs non-linear storytelling, poetry, surreality, virtual reality, and daydreaming, growing into a new unpredictable formation as a collective body of work.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Opening at GOMA Waterford on Saturday 26 July, 4\u20136pm.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The exhibition will run from Saturday 26 July \u2013&nbsp;Saturday 23 August 2025.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"733\" src=\"https:\/\/caoimhin.xyz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/PXL_20250726_123947830-1024x733.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-2095\" srcset=\"https:\/\/caoimhin.xyz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/PXL_20250726_123947830-1024x733.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/caoimhin.xyz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/PXL_20250726_123947830-300x215.jpg 300w, https:\/\/caoimhin.xyz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/PXL_20250726_123947830-768x550.jpg 768w, https:\/\/caoimhin.xyz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/PXL_20250726_123947830-1536x1100.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/caoimhin.xyz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/PXL_20250726_123947830-2048x1467.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/caoimhin.xyz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/PXL_20250726_123947830-600x430.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"802\" src=\"https:\/\/caoimhin.xyz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/PXL_20250726_124045012-1024x802.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-2096\" srcset=\"https:\/\/caoimhin.xyz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/PXL_20250726_124045012-1024x802.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/caoimhin.xyz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/PXL_20250726_124045012-300x235.jpg 300w, https:\/\/caoimhin.xyz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/PXL_20250726_124045012-768x602.jpg 768w, https:\/\/caoimhin.xyz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/PXL_20250726_124045012-1536x1203.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/caoimhin.xyz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/PXL_20250726_124045012-2048x1604.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/caoimhin.xyz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/PXL_20250726_124045012-600x470.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-text-color has-pale-pink-color has-alpha-channel-opacity has-pale-pink-background-color has-background\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p><br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group has-border-color has-senary-background-color has-background is-nowrap is-layout-flex wp-container-core-group-is-layout-1 wp-block-group-is-layout-flex\" style=\"border-color:#FFC3CF;border-width:2px;border-radius:50px;min-height:0px;padding-top:0;padding-right:var(--wp--preset--spacing--20);padding-bottom:0;padding-left:var(--wp--preset--spacing--20)\">\n<p><strong>Butler Gallery:<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/caoimhin.xyz\/index.php\/butler-gallery\/\" title=\"Butler Gallery\">June- July 2024<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-senary-background-color has-background\"><strong>Highlanes Gallery<\/strong>: <a href=\"https:\/\/caoimhin.xyz\/index.php\/highlanes-gallery\/\" title=\"Highlanes Gallery\">August- November 2024<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Uillinn: West Cork Arts Centre<\/strong>: <a href=\"https:\/\/caoimhin.xyz\/index.php\/uillin-west-cork-arts-centre\/\" title=\"Uillinn: West Cork Arts Centre\">January- February 2025<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Butler Gallery presents&nbsp;<em><a href=\"https:\/\/caoimhin.xyz\/index.php\/all-at-once-collapsing-together\/\" title=\"\">All at Once Collapsing Together<\/a><\/em>, a new body of work by Caoimh\u00edn Gaffney in a National Tour travelling to Highlanes Gallery and Uillinn: West Cork Arts Centre.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" src=\"https:\/\/caoimhin.xyz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/BLG0624CG011-1024x576.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1210\" srcset=\"https:\/\/caoimhin.xyz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/BLG0624CG011-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/caoimhin.xyz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/BLG0624CG011-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/caoimhin.xyz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/BLG0624CG011-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/caoimhin.xyz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/BLG0624CG011-1536x864.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/caoimhin.xyz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/BLG0624CG011-2048x1152.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/caoimhin.xyz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/BLG0624CG011-600x338.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Spanning across film, photography and writing,&nbsp;<em>All at Once Collapsing Together<\/em>&nbsp;uses fiction to imagine new ways of relating to the natural world.

The event features a double-bill:&nbsp;<em>Becoming Plant<\/em>&nbsp;by British-Kenyan artist Grace Ndiritu and&nbsp;<em>Expulsion<\/em>&nbsp;by Irish artist Caoimh\u00edn Gaffney. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u2018Under cover of night\u2019 is an idiom used when describing activities carried out during night time hours, in darkness, avoiding detection from authority. The clandestine and revolutionary connotations of this idiom frame this programme. With distinct focuses and subject matters, the films find commonality in their radical propositions for alternative forms of living and being.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A brief introduction precedes each film, and there will be a DJ in the foyer playing music before, between, and after the films. The screening is Friday, 15 March from 9pm\u201312am. Tickets are \u20ac10 and can be purchased on the Belltable website&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/limetreebelltable.ie\/events\/under-cover-of-night\/\"><strong>here<\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p><em>Expulsion<\/em>&nbsp;(2021) follows a fictional utopian Queer State as it devolves from a promised oppositional force into a dystopian bureaucracy. Interspersed throughout is archival footage of queer activist Joan Jett Blakk, the drag persona of Terence Smith, who ran for President of the USA in 1992.<em>&nbsp;Expulsion<\/em>&nbsp;navigates through queer history, from the witchcraft trials and the inquisition, to current debates around the co-opting of queerness by capitalism. The optimism and determination seen in the footage of Joan Jett Blakk\u2019s speeches is countered by the fictional queer state depicted by Gaffney, which descends into totalitarianism.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-text-color has-pale-pink-color has-alpha-channel-opacity has-pale-pink-background-color has-background\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Editioned photographic prints available through Uphold<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full is-resized is-style-default\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"737\" height=\"900\" src=\"https:\/\/caoimhin.xyz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/caoimhin-gaffney-2.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-674\" style=\"width:899px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/caoimhin.xyz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/caoimhin-gaffney-2.jpg 737w, https:\/\/caoimhin.xyz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/caoimhin-gaffney-2-246x300.jpg 246w, https:\/\/caoimhin.xyz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/caoimhin-gaffney-2-540x659.jpg 540w, https:\/\/caoimhin.xyz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/caoimhin-gaffney-2-491x600.jpg 491w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 737px) 100vw, 737px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<details class=\"wp-block-details is-layout-flow wp-block-details-is-layout-flow\"><summary><em>I can still taste the lake water in my mouth, feel it in my ears<\/em>, 2023. <\/summary>\n<p>Medium format photograph, Gicl\u00e9e printed on Hahnem\u00fchle Photo Rag paper, 35 cm x 28.7 cm, edition of 5.<\/p>\n<\/details>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.upholdart.co.uk\/shop\/filter-by-artist\/caoimhn-gaffney\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Uphold<\/a> presents three of my new editioned photographic prints as part of their collection.
