Shane’s photo exhibition

The artist Shane McCormak will present an exhibition of photography in Signal Arts Centre until Sunday, March 26.

An opening reception will take place on Thursday, March 16 from 7 p.m. until 9 p.m.

Shane McCormack was born in Dublin in 1970. After many years working in both animation and photography he went back to study visual art.

His exhibition is called ‘All That You Love Will Be Carried Away’.

The title of his exhibition comes from a Stephen King short story that involves a traveling salesman, Alfie Zimmer, who pulls into a Motel 6 in Nebraska for the night. His hobby while on the road is to record strange bathroom graffiti which he discovered on his many long, lonely travels. In his solitary life of a traveling salesman with only miles and miles of the empty road for his companion those ‘voices on the walls’ became his friends.
