Voices From Afar by Gay Health Network
Five personal stories from people not born in Ireland but who live here now. Bulelani, Jordi, Alejandro, Pradeep and Preet explore themes of homophobia, racism, sexual and mental health, and direct provision. Intimate, up close, real and personal; their truths compel us to listen and think.
Tír na mBeo – The land of the living by Pradeep Mahadeshwar
Pradeep’s art and activism is about giving a platform to diversity. Tír na mBeo shows a new Queer Irish cultural landscape that is vibrant and diverse. People of different sexualities, genders, body types, skin colours and ethnicities share untold queer stories from the pandemic and beyond. Project is supported by Dublin LGBTQ Pride CLG & The Department of Tourism, Culture, Arts, Gaeltacht, Sport and Media
