Scrapyard Carnival, 2016
(b.1978) is an Irish artist who lives between Berlin and Limerick.
Sean Lynch’s artworks investigate and reflect upon the methods, understandings and representations involved in dealing with contents of history. In recent years the idea of spotlighting idiosyncratic moments of the past has been his primary concern. This occurs through actions and gestures made around particular subjects that are identified from specific research and fieldwork. The photographs, installations and publications artworks generated in this process are speculative and open-ended in nature, engaging the contingencies of interpreting legacies of historical and cultural knowledge.
