Sarah Doyle:

Make the world go away.

‘Make the world go away’, a solo exhibition of works by Dublin-based photographer Sarah Doyle.

Sarah Doyle is a contemporary photographer based in Dublin. As a graduate of the University of the Arts in London, Sarah’s work is playful, feminine, deliberate and ambiguous. Her work questions our relationships with objects and scale, encouraging curiosity of familiar things and questioning our concept of reality.

The work exhibited for ‘Make the world go away’ was created over a four-year period, and culminated in a collection of intimate, engaging and curious photographic moments that reflect Sarah’s unique visual storytelling skills.

Speaking about the collection, Sarah Doyle said: “I called this series ‘Make the world go away’, because these were what I was working on when I wasn’t working on other things. I’d find myself visually overwhelmed by the work, and maybe by the world. And this is what I did in return.”

She adds: “I’m always engaged in a kind of exchange with the objects, they feel like characters to me. These colours, lines, light and shadow are all expressions of this world where things can be worked out and the possibilities are endless, it’s about creating your own world.”
