After Them (Aoibhin Farry, 21)
“Time heals all wounds”
My display demonstrates how, throughout the course of our healing process, time prevails.
Breakups can be a devastating experience. Breakups can result in intense, prolonged grief.
I collaborated with a friend to explore the course of their healing, following the breakup of a long-term relationship.
Over coffee, we sat down and discussed the various stages of grief and how she related to particular stages as she went through her healing process.
A sentence about her experience of the process…..how does she feel seeing the work?
Denial
“I really wasn’t expecting it to happen, the whole breakup just came out of nowhere - especially at 3 in the morning! After it happened, I felt myself spirling. Doubting everything that took place between us and trying to understand how it all went wrong. I really couldn’t wrap my head around the fact that we were done, I was so sure that it wouldn’t!”
“I had to change they’re name on my phone first, that made the situation real. Straight after that I broke down into tears for ages, I just sobbed uncontrollably while reading the text over and over while lying in bed all night until the earlier hours of the morning. I didn’t sleep at all that night. When I did eventually stop crying I couldn't bring myself to go to classes so I just grabbed my laptop and started watching my favourite movies in hopes of trying to distract myself.”
Depression
“I eventually came to terms with what had happened and that it wasn’t going to change anything soon. I realised that I had to rely on myself to become my own distraction as well as my own support system to make any sort of progress in feeling better.”“While making an effort to detach from my breakup, I decided that this would be a perfect time to try out a few new things - maybe alter my appearance as I felt that I needed some sort of change that I could control. So I did some retail therapy and tried out new clothing styles - I also got some new piercings. I also did your typical breakup things like listening to sad breakup songs and watching sad movies..”
Anger “I eventually called them up, hoping for some type of closure on the whole ordeal. But by the time the call ended I just ended up feeling super frustrated and angry. I just couldn’t stop thinking about how they could’ve done a better job communicating with me instead of carrying out the relationship when they had clearly lost feelings a good bit before they ended it.”
Release
“During this time I vented a lot to my close friends and family any chance I had, the need to release pent up anger and to just hear what they thought about them and the whole situation which felt very validating so say the least. My friends and I also went out clubbing and got drunk, which is very stereotypical but I was out with friends and having a good time and the situation felt like it was behind me.”
Acceptance “I remember just sitting down in a cafe somewhere alone to catch up on class work, I had my laptop in front of me and a coffee beside me and I felt at peace - with myself. I literally felt like the weight of everything had just vanished, and I didn’t question it - I was content."

Momentary is a brief exhibition, a moment in time. Showcasing the work of Maya Cawtherley, Aoibhin Farry, Callum Jasper-Smith, Naomi Parsons, Chrissy Stephenson, Natasha Thorns and Olivia Williamson.
Time is "the indefinite continued progress of existence and events in the past, present and future." Here we explore this concept through 7 different perspectives. with each artist producing work in line with their chosen practice.
Time is something we subconsciously experience, through this exhibition we create a pause in time, generating a series of work which is individual yet intertwined.

Mood/Inspiration board for my Event Photography class this semester!
As My family and I are a part of the Fermanagh Down Syndrome Association I knew we had a few Events coming up and seeing the opportunity I took it and asked the chairperson if it would be accepted for me to attend the event as a photographer instead of a volunteer and she happily agreed! She even asked if I would attend two events this year - saying that I could use both events for my assignment and I agreed!
The events coming up are World Down Syndrome day - it’s one of our yearly events that we do for the kids, it’s started with a meal, then moves to a indoors fun day and then it’s with everyone uo dressing up silly to watch the Enniskillen Castle be lite uo Blue and Yellow our representational colours!
The next is the Yearly cycle marathon the everyone and anyone can join. It’s a great way for everyone to take part and raise awareness and money for the charity and ends up being a fun do for everyone. I usually attend to help at pit-stops but my mums having to cover my stuffed this year
