Join Guest Curator Marysia Więckiewicz-Carroll and artist Katarzyna Perlak for a short gallery tour and conversation about the exhibition Better a bare foot than none. Better a bare foot than none see’s Katarzyna Perlak’s 'tender crafts’ series explore how heritage and traditional handwork practices can be re-imagined from contemporary feminist, queer and migrant perspectives. Perlak’s Pajaki sculptures, a starting point for the exhibition, are a material manifestation of Polish tradition. The paper chandeliers, also known as 'spiders', are hung to protect the home, and are historically crafted for Christian, Pagan and folk celebrations. Considering the contradictions within problematic social movements in Poland, as well as her own longing for home, Perlak utilises the feeling of nostalgia to imagine new possibilities for the future. Katarzyna Perlak’s exhibitions include Liverpool Biennial (2025); V&A Museum, London (2024); Whitechapel Gallery, London (2023); B3 Biennial of Moving Image, Frankfurt (2023); Brent Biennial, London (2022); Jerwood Arts, London (2021); Detroit Art Week (2019); BALTIC, Gateshead (2017); Diaspora Pavilion, 57th Venice Biennale (2017) Marysia Więckiewicz-Carroll has organised and curated numerous exhibitions and projects in Ireland and abroad, independently and in partnership with various institutions and local authorities, including Dublin City Gallery, The Hugh Lane and Irish Museum of Modern Art. She was a co-editor of Paper Visual Art Journal, and the founding director of Berlin Opticians Gallery. This exhibition is supported by an Arts Council Project Award.

It was very good. I drank a pint of beer on the top floor without even paying for peanuts. It was different from the previous brewery tour in Boston, except that I could enter the workshop.

Trinity College Dublin

读万卷书；行万里路

The most worthwhile attraction in Dublin, there are three worthwhile attractions: the first is the Book of Kells, which is the national treasure of Ireland, but you must listen to the audio guide, otherwise you will not understand the preciousness of this scripture; the second is the library gallery, which is the filming location of the Harry Potter movie, and it is also very quaint and unique; the third is the oldest harp in Ireland. In general, the tour is very exciting, the small disadvantage is that the price of Ctrip is slightly more expensive than the local ticket price, and the cost performance is not very high.

Dublin Castle has a long royal history and the attractions are worth visiting. The ticket price is only 8 euros (6 euros for those over 60 years old). However, the ticket price on Ctrip for those over 60 years old is 160 yuan, which is 3 times the price on site. It is too expensive!!! It has affected my high trust and good impression of Ctrip!!!

St Patrick's Cathedral

This Catholic church in Dublin has a long history and is a landmark building in Dublin. Both the inside and the outside are very exquisitely built.

Ha'penny Bridge

就叫其卓

Legend has it that in the past it cost half a penny to cross the bridge, so it was called the Halfpenny Bridge. It&#39;s just an ordinary bridge, but the hidden surprise is the seagulls that are not afraid of people at all, and the scenery on both sides of the River Liffey can be seen from the bridge.
