- **Event Description**: Join us for the opening of  STATESIDE  with an in-conversation between artist Jackie Nickerson and Sinéad GleesonAbout this EventSaturday 28th March, 2026 at 3.20pmJoin us for the opening of Jackie Nickerson's exhibition STATESIDE - a Highlanes Gallery national tour where Jackie will be in conversation with writer and journalist Sinéad Gleeson.The exhibition is open to view from 3pmThis talk will be (ISL )Irish Sign Language Interpreted.Tea, Coffee &amp; Prosecco will be served.STATESIDE is Jackie Nickerson’s sweeping, fragmented visual diary of a decade living and working across the USA. From streetscapes in Chicago to military installations on Hawaii, from Utah landscapes to New York skyscrapers, Nickerson used whatever camera she had at hand—medium format, 35mm, point and shoot, iPhone—to fix raw glimpses of America at this peculiar, precarious time.Her focus was less on specific locations than on repeated motifs, as if these photos could have been taken virtually anywhere in America. Chainlink fences, basketball courts, suburban houses and classrooms, gas stations and even battleships become markers of sameness, and of the functionalism that fuel’s America’s economy.Unlike other work that explores contemporary America, both as place and idea, Jackie Nickerson avoids ‘definitive’ images as individual works. Instead she made large prints of her work, hung them in an overlapping sequence on her studio wall, and then re- photographed them.The result is a compelling, ongoing narrative of the complex, troubled America of today.STATESIDE continues until Saturay 9th May, after which we present it on national tour during July at Galway International Arts Festival and then in February 2027 at the Butler Gallery, Kilkenny.Jackie Nickerson: STATESIDE is funded by an Arts Council of Ireland touring award.ABOUT:Jackie Nickerson is an American-born British artist.
