MTU Arts Office’s annual graduate award exhibition focussing on the environment. The title comes from an old Irish saying “Ar scáth a chéile a mhairimid”, which can be translated as “In the shadow of each other we live”. 
Taking a broad view on what constitutes our environment, the exhibition aims to discuss the shadows we cast and the shadows we live with, the impacts our decisions have on each other, our relationship with the wider natural world, and our responsibilities as inhabitants of that world. The exhibition centres on the themes and practices of the selected artists, inviting engagement and conversation
