Outdoor Project

Your Dublin

“Hello! Open Me”

20 Disposable cameras were placed around Dublin in a stamped addressed envelope. The note on the envelope invited the public to use the camera to show us ‘their Dublin’ and then post these cameras back.

These photos were then available to see on ‘YourDublin.wordpress.com‘.

The aim of this project is to interrupt daily life, invite people to allow us to to see a day in their life and to trust that people will willingly take part in something anonymous. We attempted to connect with strangers in a new way, one where they didn’t know the outcome of what they shot and we had no idea what to expect.

About:

An appreciation of digital media, art & technology and an outlet to publish work. My background has been in design, working mainly in graphic design and layout. I have been layout and design editor and image editor for magazines previously. Recently I have been pursuing the photographic route. I have just started an MA in Art in the Digital World in NCAD. My proposal is loosely based around the social implications of the web 2.0 generation and comparing the real -vs- the unreal. Recent reading has brought me to look closely at generation 'Y'. I would like you to keep this in mind when looking at my recent photographs, designs and links.
