Migrant Rights Centre Ireland’s Domestic Workers Support Group and Susan Gogan: Opening Doors

Opening  Doors is an exhibition of collaborative  photographic works by the Migrant Rights Centre Ireland’s  Domestic Workers Support Group (DWSG) and artist Susan Gogan.

These  collaborative and combined works explore the obstacles facing women employed in the private home and highlight the contributions they make daily in their  lives.  Also featuring a textile work by the DWSG, this exhibition is an  intriguing insight into an extremely valuable, yet invisible employment sector  and group of women in contemporary Irish society.
