Creative Campus 2014

This year Creative Campus’14 is addressing the theme of ‘Library’.

The traditional library existed in physical space, it focused on storage and preservation, cataloguing and quiet learning. Libraries now exist as hybrid spaces, as much virtual as real, the library network animated by and situated within communities of users. Sources of information based on paper, coexist with digital and online archives. The South Dublin County Council Library network and in particular County Library Tallaght will serve as a framework for the work of the participating artists on this year’s project.

This year’s participating artists will think of themselves as visual storytellers, information givers, a point of access into contemporary art, authors, narrators, biographers, collaborators, their stories can be tiny, hidden between pages or all engulfing epic in your face pop out fiction.

Artists and mentors are working in County Library Tallaght every Wednesday until May 2014.
