CCA is pleased to announce an upcoming solo exhibition by Sarah Pierce, No Title, opening on 22 July. The exhibition is related to Pierce’s long-term project with CCA which hones in on dementia, on the one hand as a marked disorder, but with a potential to reorder and restructure what we consider to be – and how we construct concepts of – personal narrative and subjecthood.

The exhibition No Title will be launched alongside the artist book by the same name, which has been produced as part of the project and features contributions from Claire Potter, Mason Leaver-Yap, Jacob Wren, Karl Holmqvist, and TJ Clark.

More information will be posted over the coming weeks so please check back.

Sarah Pierce is an artist based in Dublin. Over the last several years, she has focussed on community, less through traditional or elective groups, and more through insecure, shifting, and difficult to manage configurations we inhabit from time to time. Her art reflects a broad definition of culture, and the processes of research and presentation she undertakes highlight a continual renegotiation of the terms for making art and the potential for dissent and self-determination. Since 2003, she has used the term The Metropolitan Complex to describe a working method characterised by a wide set of circumstances, slippages between individual work and institution, and the proximity of past artworks.
