Clay Galway Exhibition, 2021

Sacred Bones is an installation honouring the Tuam Mother and Baby Home infants, commemorating their lives and retrieving the truth held within their remains.

Sacred Bones was part of an online exhibition in conjunction with Clay Galway. Holly Mullarkey invites viewers to seek the truth, to process the great pain of being demonised at birth, and to honour these infant bones.
