Where do we all belong? is a socially engaged visual art project exploring loneliness in rural Co. Sligo. This publication documents the project and contains, artworks, participant voices, photographs and texts.
The project responds to a pressing social issue. In 2023, the European Commission’s Joint Research Centre found that Ireland has the highest levels of loneliness in Europe, with over 20% of respondents feeling lonely most or all of the time, compared with an EU average of 13%.
Working across Sligo, the project followed a process of research, development and exhibition, engaging communities in the making of the work so that a wide range of voices shaped the outcomes. Through conversation and anonymous surveys, people were invited to reflect on their experiences and thoughts on loneliness. Where do we all belong? aims to inspire meaningful connections and promote social inclusion
