Library Artist in Residence: Louise Hobson

About

During her residency Louise Hobson is pursuing creative ideas around knowledge exchange. Her research begins with the catalogue 'Connect: Public Art in Transit Project' (1998), a project that used the Belfast-Dublin railway as a site for exploring commonalities between people. Louise is interested in the trade route as a theoretical and visual concept and how it can be used to consider the exchange of art, knowledge and ideas on a global scale. Louise is entering into dialogue with Phil Owen (Reading Room, Arnolfini) throughout the residency. They will present the emergent ideas and works at the end of the project.
