Doireann Ní Ghroighair is a sculptor whose work takes its lead from monumental architecture in contemporary European cities, where classical orders proliferate, imbuing buildings such as law courts, banks, govenment buildings and academic institutions with esteem and grandeur. Reimagined in her sculptural work, architectural fragments become totems of a faltering empire; their potency suffused with flippancy and fallibility.
