{"product_id":"the-dark-pool-paul-corcoran","title":"The Dark Pool, Paul Corcoran","description":"\u003cdiv\u003eDark pools promise liquidity without visibility. This photography project treats that hidden market as both subject and metaphor, tracing how power operates through opacity. It considers a financial system that hides in plain sight—embedded in everyday infrastructures yet rarely perceived directly. The work stages scenes where information circulates but never fully appears. Figures are implied through screens, cables, and architectural voids, suggesting decisions made elsewhere yet structuring everyday life. The images approach finance as a social fiction that organises behaviour while remaining largely unseen. The series invites viewers to consider markets not as neutral mechanisms, but as carefully maintained imaginaries whose shadows shape the visible world and our shared economic imagination.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e@paulcphoto\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor those that are not familiar with the project, \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/photoireland.org\/project\/tlp-editions\/\" title=\"TLP Editions\"\u003eTLP Editions\u003c\/a\u003e is an ongoing collection, produced and designed by \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/photoireland.org\/about-photoireland\/\" title=\"PhotoIreland\"\u003ePhotoIreland\u003c\/a\u003e, that presents work by contemporary artists in the form of uncomplicated publications.
