The Saol Nua is an exhibition that showcases powerful stories of refugees and people still in the protection process. The exhibition is a celebration the fortitude of refugees and work being done by communities across Ireland to help people in the process cope with life in international protection. 

The nuanced, diverse and detail-laden photography, that include letters written by participants and mementos, also encourage the viewer to look a bit closer and spurs further curiosity as it presents participants as relatable individuals on a life changing, profound and unique journey in Ireland. 

The project a collaboration between the IRC and the photographer Michael Sugrue who is the Director of Mayrose Future company, who has offered his time, expertise and tools to us for free. 

The exhibition is supported and made possible by Tesco and DLA Piper.
