About the artists
Sally O’Dowd is an award winning visual artist who makes performance, drawing, film and experimental drawing sessions that explore identity and women’s roles in contemporary Irish society. Her socially engaged, site-responsive practice uses drawing as process and live documentation.
Recent projects include Border Biennale 2025, Beuys 50 Years Later (Ulster Museum), Array Collective’s Lay of the Land, and documenting the Good Friday Agreement 25th Anniversary and Breastival Festival of Breastfeeding.
She leads experimental drawing workshops for institutions including the Ulster Museum, Conversations Festival for National Trust Mountstewart, and NI Mental Health Arts Festival.
Her artwork can be found in the Historic Royal Palaces, the Arts Council of Northern Ireland, and the Northern Ireland Civil Service collections.
A former creative co-director of Townhall Cavan Arts Space, and founding member of Vault Artist Studios, Belfast, Sally is actively involved in curating exhibitions and public programmes.
Rudger Power consists of Zofia Kuligowska (she/her), a performance artist and doctoral researcher at the Academy of Art in Szczecin. Her practice centers on performance and language as interconnected mediums for exploring neurodivergence, empathy, and collective care. She has presented work internationally and lived and created in Romania, the Netherlands, Northern Ireland, and Norway. Together with Wojtek Bernatowicz, Kuligowska co-creates the duo Rudger Power, producing immersive text-based and auditory performances that blend sound, storytelling, and live presence. Her work celebrates the multidimensionality of neurodivergence and seeks to build connections across boundaries. Special thanks to the Adam Mickiewicz Institute
