A Tenuous Line is a multimedia exhibition presented in the upstairs gallery by Niamh McGuinne, a Dublin-based visual artist whose practice combines print, sculpture, film and installation. Her work investigates the formulations of middens, accumulations of discarded material, and historical rubbish heaps. There are 77 midden sites situated in Mayo, eighteen of which are sheltered in Clew Bay, typically containing shells, bones and other such remnants of survival. They are read as sites of temporary occupation, holding traces of movement and diets. This tenuous line is not a line drawn on a map. It is a line drawn around resources, around bodies, around access. 

Niamh McGuinne has had many solo shows, including Carapa’ (2023), Highlanes Gallery, Drogheda and Sojourn (2024), Rathfarnham Castle. She is a member of Shell/Ter Artist Collective, who together have exhibited in the National Gallery of Ireland (2022), Draiocht (2022), Limerick City Art Gallery (2023) and GOMA Waterford (2024). As a member of MIDDEN collective, she has exhibited in Lumen Gallery, London (2021), Takt Berlin (2022), the Luan Gallery, Athlone (2022) and upcoming QSS Belfast in June 2026.
