Folús

Curated by Lilymay Healy and Tara Dowling

Satellite Projects & Studios

17th - 19th September 2026

The rain dissolves deep fissures into limestone, islands continually recede into mist but in the wake of disappearance, something hums from the void.

Traces signal existence - a shadow of something - but that which casts it is not there.

Folús brings together 12 artists and writers, both London-based and Ireland-based, from 17th September to the 19th September 2026 at Satellite Projects & Studios in Galway. Spanning sculpture, painting, moving image, textile, found objects and writing, we wish to consider the lines of presence within absence and absence within presence. In these gaps, invisible pasts remain perceptible through their traces and a potential for fabulation emerges. We consider the possibility that these voids are latent spaces, generative of fictions and mythologies which manifest alternative futures.
