Student Forum

2025

The Douglas Hyde Gallery of Contemporary Art is delighted to welcome our Student Forum cohort 2025.
 

The Student Forum is a group of students and recent graduates who engage with The Douglas Hyde and its programming in different ways over a period of twelve months. This includes participating in reading and discussion groups, meeting artists and curators, leading tours and responses to our exhibitions and group trips to exhibitions and events. Throughout the year, the group will engage with our 2025 programme of exhibitions by Yuyan Wang, Mohammed Sami and Atsushi Kaga.

Through these engagements, Student Forum members bring their own research and artistic practices into reflections on the artworks they see, as well as into an ongoing interrogation of the purpose and possibilities of the gallery space.

The Student Forum 2025 are Jessie Aylmer, Reuben Browne, Cormac Dillon, Síofra Egan, Cathal Eustace, Shanaia Kapoor, Bernadette Kenny, Margot Kenny, Róise McGagh, Emma Murphy, Marita O’Hanlon, Eoghan O’Kelly, Anna O’Leary, James Ó Muirithe, Jack Pierce, Anastassia Varabiova, Caoimhe Wandel-Brannigan, Isabella Wood.
