Staying with The Trouble 

IMMA 

 1st May to 21st September 2025 

 

The exhibition Staying with the Trouble, inspired by author and philosopher Donna Haraway’s seminal work, features over 40 Irish and Ireland-based artists whose diverse practices explore urgent themes of our time. Pushing against social norms, the works in the exhibition challenge us and attempt to make sense of the present, questioning interspecies relationships, ideas of transformation, and renewal. The exhibition challenges human-centric narratives, advocating for a multi-species/multi-kin perspective through sculpture, film, painting, installation and performance.
