Of Other Spaces
These photos are part of an investigation/documention of the former Military Barracks in Omagh.Having lived in Omagh for most of my life the Barracks always assummed a peculiar yet persistant focus within my life.My feelings regarding the space were always ambivalent and unsettling ,largely due to family links to the barracks.My Grandfather,an Irish Catholic from Drogheda served for most of his life with the British Army and for a large part of that was stationed along with his growing family at Lisanelly Barracks.Ambivalence and dual allegiances to a large extent informed my understanding and attempts to define the space. Subsequently these photographs of the former military barracks in my home town,ask questions relating to closure/disclosure, order/disorder, longing/belonging.
