Clare Lyons
Every Saturday
Sparked by the discovery that I have two Birth Certificates on file in the Irish Civil Registry System, and finding a starting point in revisiting the forced relationship I had with my biological father, 'Every Saturday' looks at familial relationships in the face of conflicting identities. Through cathartic processes of childlike crafting which were introduced to me at an early age during therapy and counselling, I create new documents and assemblages which demonstrate the desire to regain control; over my own sense of self, and over a time when I felt I had none. I incorporate ephemera from the landscape to create new documents and assemblages which reflect such processes of working through trauma by creating and making.
