We continue to introduce this year’s RADAR recipients, with Gareth Byrne from the National College of Art and Design (CEAD). ‘It Could Be You’ is a visual exploration of how our modern capitalist ideals leave working people captive in a time economy that sees leisure as a threat to prosperity, leaving individuals to dream about inheritances, jackpots, and winning at the races. The project aims to examine these ideas through fly on the wall documentary photography and combines and contrasts reconstructed images from a variety of lottery and gambling advertisements using 35mm macro photography. The project has been displayed in a zine format. . The programme is aimed at providing adequate national and international opportunities for artists in order to engage with the broad arts context and consolidate their practice. RADAR is an ambitious evolution of the Inspirational Arts Photography Award first established in 2009, now expanding its remit to provide critical opportunities with the support of PhotoIreland.
