An artist has hit out at the over-development of Dublin through an insightful exhibition.
Visual artist and photographer Jeanette Lowe became preoccupied with the decline of Dublin's street post pandemic. She found that many obstacles, such as bollards and advertisement boxes, added unneccessary clutter to city streets.
The photographer decided to channel her frustrations through aesthetically striking postcards. Jeanette created a series of designs which show the haphazard decline of popular Dublin streets.
She told Dublin Live: "I decided to design a series of imagined 'postcards' focusing on the visual noise within the city. The aim is to start a conversation about our city and who we prioritise it for, as well as how we plan for the future."

Jeanette's exhibition also levels quiet criticism at Dublin's development over time. She explained that city streets were seen for their true beauty during lockdown before endless litter bins, bollards and road markings were introduced.
The exhibition is taking place in the NCAD campus on Thomas Street. Postcards on display are available at a mere €1 cost.
'Turn down the Volume' is accessible to the public until lunchtime on Thursday. You can view several of Jeanette's postcard designs via Instagram.
