Listening for Brigid Audio experience by Deirdre Brennan

This event has ended

Hugh Lane Gallery, Friday 31st January - Sunday 2nd February

After the successful launch of photographer Deirdre Brennan’s Looking for Brigid photography project, Brigit: Dublin City Celebrating Women is excited to return with the second chapter of this powerful series. Listening for Brigid invites you to explore the voices and stories behind the Bridgets captured in Brennan’s lens—women of all ages, backgrounds, and spellings of the name, from Ireland and abroad.

Visitors will be able to listen to the diverse and riveting histories of these Bridgets in Gallery 19 in the Hugh Lane Gallery or online —each with her own unique journey, yet all connected by the enduring legacy of the name. Through personal stories, reflections, and the exhibition of photographs, we will explore the lives of these women and the myriad ways they embody the spirit of Brigid.

This piece is created by award-winning photographer Deirdre Brennan and edited by Barry Connolly @ Plexa.

Come and listen. Come and celebrate.
