Ailbhe Ní Bhriain: The Dream Pool Intervals

Tuesday 9 September 2025, 2:30pm

Join us for a guided tour of the work of Ailbhe Ní Bhriain, led by one of our expert guides. This tour will explore a temporary exhibition of the artist’s tapestries titled The Dream Pool Intervals. Five large-scale jacquard tapestries form the centre of this exhibition and create a journey through emblematic iconography of past colonial repression and early technological aspirations. They convey complex political and dynastic messages that resist singular interpretation and echo the fragmented nature of how information is gathered and absorbed in our subconscious. These tapestries are a new series of works created especially for Hugh Lane Gallery by the contemporary artist.

Free, advance booking required.
