Mona Hatoum: Eyes Skinned and So much I want to say
Carlow Town, Co. Carlow
29 February - 12 May 2024
Free to visit
Two early video works by Mona Hatoum, 'So much I want to say' and 'Eyes Skinned' address both personal and universal politics as they relate to displacement, censorship, and violence.

VISUAL is pleased to present two early video works by Mona Hatoum. So much I want to say and Eyes Skinned address both personal and universal politics as they relate to displacement, censorship, and violence. The artist’s experience as a Palestinian whose family was displaced to Lebanon, and then Hatoum herself to London, informs the reading of these works, along with addressing broader complex realities of the political landscape of the middle east.

Taken together, when one considers the distance of time from when these works were made, the viewer is provoked to consider how history is continuously being repeated, and how present realities are both informed by, and entrench, the past.
