Curated by Seán Golden; Maugherow beneath the blowing sands is a community response to historical events in Maugherow and environs. Entire villages were inundated by sand there in the nineteenth century. Historical texts and visitors’ chronicles describe the blowing sands and their consequences. Extracts from traditional emigration songs and oral history compiled by local schoolchildren in the 1930s combine with contemporary artworks, poetry and prose to give voice to the inhabitants, the anonymous victims of the blowing sands, the Famine and epidemics.
