Halfway Home
Halfway Home is a project exploring family, travel and Irish identity through documentary film and photography. I made a fifteen-minute film combining interview, narration and archival footage, following a journey from my home in Scotland back to Ireland with my mum and grandad. Alongside the film, I produced a series of photographic prints made during the journey.
The work looks at questions of belonging and inheritance through everyday moments and shared stories. It traces connections across places and generations, from talking head interviews to quieter observations captured on the road. At its heart, Halfway Home is about how travel can become a space for reflection, and how family stories help shape our sense of where we come from.
