Galway Arts Centre - Exhibition 14 - 27 July 2025
Galway Arts Centre presents 'pass the baton', a collaborative exhibition by artists Laura O’Connor and Léann Herlihy that draws on personal histories of competitive sport and performance to interrogate ideas of identity, nationalism and bodily resilience.
