Frank McElhinney - Flight Exhibition Tour
Flight is a new solo exhibition by artist Frank McElhinney that reflects upon the long history of migration between Ireland and Scotland, with a particular focus on the effects of the Great Famine during the mid-nineteenth century. His work investigates contemporary issues through a historical lens. Recent wars in Ukraine, Syria, Iraq, and Afghanistan have forced millions of people to flee their homelands. The worsening climate crisis almost guarantees other major population shifts in the near future.
In this short video, the artist gives an insight into his exhibition and the themes and processes behind the works.
