IADT Photography Exhibition at Mason Hayes & Curran
The event highlighted the intersection of art and corporate culture, showcasing the innovative work of IADT’s BA (Hons) Photography alumni.
The exhibition featured a diverse array of photographic works from talented artists including Ayesha Ahmad, Evanna Devine, Sam Donohoe, Mark Dupré, Peter Greene, Jacobi Hoff, Seán Kelly, Roisin Lambert, Jialin Long, Sarah Louise Lordan, Leon Nevill Gallagher, and Emilia Rigaud.
Attendees had the opportunity to engage directly with the artists, gaining insights into their creative processes and the stories behind their images. The event also included remarks from Dr. Andrew Power, Vice President of Academic Affairs at IADT, and Julia Gelezona from PhotoIreland, who both emphasised the importance of supporting emerging artists and fostering collaborations between educational institutions and the corporate sector.
Special congratulations were extended to Evanna Devine, who was honored as the PhotoIreland winner, and to Roisin Lambert, whose work was selected by MHC staff for its exceptional quality.
This successful collaboration would not have been possible without the dedication and support of several key individuals. A heartfelt thank you to Christine O’Donovan and her team at MHC for their commitment to integrating art into the corporate environment and for providing a platform for emerging artists. Special thanks to Adrian Reilly and Martin Healy and the rest of the photography team for their invaluable guidance, mentorship, curation and hard work in realising this collaboration. Gratitude is also extended to Dr. Andrew Power, Vanessa Gildea, and Dr Jeremiah Ambrose from IADT for their leadership and vision in promoting the arts.
Most importantly, we celebrate the IADT alumni who showcased and shared their remarkable work. Their creativity and passion continue to inspire and demonstrate the profound impact of visual storytelling.
This exhibition stands as a testament to the power of collaboration between academia and the corporate world, highlighting the importance of supporting the next generation of artists.
