Portfolio Review 2009 / Experten

Artistic Director of Sirius Arts Centre in Cobh, County Cork, Ireland, a multidisciplinary arts centre with exhibition and residency programmes.

Peggy has been photographer, teacher, curator and journalist at different times during her photographic career. For the last seven years, Peggy has curated numerous exhibitions of Irish and international photographers. Specifically focusing on photography with a view to raising discourse on the practice in Ireland, Peggy has worked with many important artists.
Originally from the United States Peggy Sue Amison has been living and working in Ireland for 8 years.

Peggy is interested in seeing work centred around ideas of identity, myth, and culture, imagery that challenges the boundaries of straight documentary photography. Photographers who are interested in residencies are directed to review the Sirius Arts Centre website at: www.siriusartscentre.ie before the review session.
