Referring to the lowest atmospheric layer and literally meaning “sphere of change”, the troposphere is the site of weather, turbulence and atmospheric transformation.

The paintings in Cuckoo Clock reflect a new momentum and direction in Seán Guinan's practice. The paintings are the result of a series of interventions, the terms of which are dictated by a daily scrutinizing, obliterating/mending and an intuitive working-out of the direction each one needs to take.

The exhibition operates across the registers of painting drawing, moving image and the investigation of speculative and theoretical fictions.

One of the ways we define the present moment is by valuing or devaluing past events. This exhibition takes a series of personal family artefacts that appear to have no intrinsic ‘value’ to show how such intimate remains both conceal and reveal prevailing circumstances and wider belief systems of a specific period.

The relationship between Labour and Capital shifted irrevocably in 1913 in the Great Dublin Lockout, just as it is shifting today – whether through the directives that change the face of rural labour, or the lockouts of our time, or the marketplace which directed our lives without our even knowing, or that the spaces we think are public but are governed by restrictive rules, or how we perform in relationship to knowledge and the past – this is what A LETTER TO LUCY addresses, what these artists take on. 

BYOB Dublin ’13 is an DIY curatorial format where artists collaborate on site to create a moving image experience.
