Niamh Barry (b.1998) is a self-taught photographer, videographer, and creative director based in Dublin, Ireland. She attempts to magnify queer Irish identities through portraiture and documentary photography; her work conveys intimate moments and emotions in a country marked by the rigid sexual mores of Catholicism. Challenging traditional notions of Irish femininity, masculinity and sexuality, works such as Queer Hearts of Dublin, No Queer Apologies and Now and Forever, Interpersonally Queer encourage spectators to connect with her subjects as both individuals and as community. Collaborating extensively with fellow queer Irish artists, her work is simultaneously a call for solidarity and a call to action.
