A Place to Call Home: Future Visions Through the Lens

This photography exhibition marks the culmination of a Creative Engagement Programme between LuskCC Fifth Year Art students and the Photo Museum Ireland. Through this collaboration, students investigate the Irish housing crisis not merely as a news headline, but as a deeply personal and conceptual landscape.

Exploring themes of belonging, displacement, and the “uncertain future,” these young artists use both traditional and experimental photography to document the past, present, and imagined future of Irish housing. Their work moves beyond literal documentation, utilizing symbolism to express the hopes and anxieties of a generation questioning where and if they will find a place of their own.

A Place to Call Home invites you to see the crisis through the eyes of those most affected by its future, offering a visual dialogue on what “home” truly means in a changing Ireland.
