Lauren Haughey

is a multidisciplinary visual artist, organiser, producer, and writer based in Dublin.  Her practice explores the cultural, technological, and ecological conditions shaping contemporary life. 

Working across performance, sculpture, installation, moving image, participatory practice, and food-based interventions, she uses research-led and process-based experimentation to investigate how stories, myths, and collective imaginaries emerge within contemporary systems of meaning. In her practice, she aims to provide a lens of enchantment and sensitivity through which to view the world, with an approach of care and curiosity.
