FOR SHAME Human Rights Exhibition now on at Arklow Library

A selection of artists from the 402 Collective have come together for their current exhibition ‘For Shame’ which launched last week at Arklow library.

The mixed media exhibition includes thought provoking pieces which throw shade whilst exploring various different elements of human rights. Described as a thinking persons exhibition, shame, fear and the ruthlessness of obliteration of lives and futures are all sharply invoked by the pieces on display.
