The Mayo Atlas is a research project by Aidan Conway, exploring the built environment and landscapes of County Mayo.
Detailed 3D models from photogrammetric* and LiDAR* scans form the point of entry for each site. Dense surveys that reveal individual threads of enquiry varying from ecology, local history, geology, archaeology, construction, material, form and adaption.
This exhibition includes 11 such sites, each forming a short story within a shared context.
It includes collaborations with Aisling McCoy, Peter Molloy, Lottie Mac and Claire Kinsella. Conversations conducted across sites of varying scale and detail.
The objective of this ongoing research is to embed oneself in a context through the study of specific moments that, at times, may offer universal insights
