PROJECT ISOLATE

Trying to make sense of Lockdown

Photo Project

Project Isolate is a family project.  Like many other families, the McGuckins have been locked down for weeks and encounter a daily paradox of feeling simultaneously grateful and anxious, but ultimately recognise their fortune in being located in remote Donegal.  Paul, Tallulah and Violet make the images, Isla the words.  Sample photographs can be viewed below and will be published in an online phonebook soon.

Film Project

During Lockdown, the family exercise in the same places as always, such is their connection with their immediate surroundings.  The first film, “One hour during Lockdown” is a record of one of their daily walks; walks on which they often have these places to themselves, more so during these times.                                                                                                                                                                 _
