Finola Graham & Pauline Turmel
Cross-Currents

They met thirty years ago when Finola was a student of Pauline’s father at Ecole des Beaux-Arts de Paris. They re-established contact when Pauline visited Ireland. These two artists, of different nationalities and generations, conceived the Cross-Currents project; two years of exchange of studio and life, with Pauline working in Ireland and Finola in Paris for prolonged periods.

"It was when the exchanges of studios between Turmel and Graham started that the project took on another, parallel, life."
Finola Graham

"J’ai abordé ces voyages avec un désir fort : m’immerger et me laisser transformer par les rencontres et les lieux. Avec ce projet, la photographie a trouvé une place nouvelle dans mon processus de travail."
Pauline Turmel
