Stories from Lismore and Beyond documents an extraordinary moment in society, since the Covid-19 pandemic has spread across the globe. As people have been in lockdown for several months, our lives have seemingly transformed beyond recognition, with a shared moment for contemplation unimaginable only a few months ago.

Lismore Castle Arts extended an open call for entries in June 2020 inviting artists and the public to submit images of their new normal – this may involve a new routine, a hobby, or a new way of working. The images on display are a document of this new existence – with an attempt to display as many images submitted as possible.

The exhibition has 3 distinct strands – invited submissions of images of daily life, mostly submitted through social media; invited responses from Irish-based artists who have previously had a connection with LCA; and artworks from the Lismore Castle collection, which have a resonance with the current times.

This pairing of new and current images alongside historic work suggests that artists have always closely investigated our relationship with the simple, the routine, the everyday, and of the opportunity this shared moment now seems to offer. The exhibition hints at an optimism, at the opportunity to re-evaluate our routines and priorities.
