Overview
'Leaving Dublin: Photographs by David Monahan' showcases the stories of Irish migrants who have left their home country over the last three years and are now seeking new lives in Australia and elsewhere, in numbers not seen since the dark days of Irish migration following the great famine of the 1800s.
These stories are told through 30 poignant, large–scale images that capture the sense of adventure, excitement, hope, sadness and anxiety of those leaving their homes in the hope of a better life.
