Stigma Damages is a solo exhibition by Michele Horrigan, known for her ongoing investigations into heavy industry in Ireland and the environmental impacts involved in the global production of aluminium. This is Horrigan’s most substantial presentation on the topic to date, with new video artworks, unearthed archival documents and found objects placed across five gallery spaces at The Model.

A seminar event on Saturday October 12 will feature the artist in conversation with Neal White (Professor of Art at University of Westminster, London), Patrick Bresnihan (Associate Professor in the Department of Geography at Maynooth University) and Emanuela Ferrari (Environmental Campaigner with FutureProof Clare and PhD candidate at University College Dublin).
