ALTERNATIVE MANNERS
— Christopher Mahon


19 September – 4 October 2025

“That brittle, crumbly part of the social fabric where disinterest – the noble search for objective truth – rubs up against spectacle. The instinct to gawk from a safe distance, equally aroused by beauty and horror.”

Alternative Manners will feature a new sculptural and photographic work by the artist, Christopher Mahon. The photos, which were taken in front ot the artist’s Cairo studio, have been blown-up, cut-out, hung, and burned.  The image is initially startling, but upon further study reveals more about the place in which it documents.

Christopher Mahon is an Irish visual artist living between Dublin and Cairo. On Culture Night Christopher will present his new exhibition "Alternative Manners" along with a talk about his work. He holds an MA in Art and Research Collaboration from IADT and was a resident at the Rijksakademie, Amsterdam 2018-2019. Mahon has exhibited in Ireland and internationally.
