Through the Time is a participatory art project developed for the users/clients of Cahir Day Care Centre in which artist Magdalena Rudnicka invites participants to explore memories, lived experiences, and personal milestones through creative expression. Focusing on the theme of time, individuals will reflect on their life stories and translate them into visual and material forms.
The project involves eight participants and is facilitated by the artist in close collaboration with the Centre’s staff. Over twelve two-hour weekly sessions between February and April, participants experimented with drawing, painting, printmaking, and fabric-based techniques. Each participant will create a personal “photo” album combining images, textures, and short written reflections that express their identity and memories. In addition to these individual works, the group will collaborate to create a collective artwork that will be displayed at Cahir Day Care Centre.
The programme will conclude with a launch event at the Centre. Family members, friends, and other service users will be invited to attend, celebrating the participants’ creative achievements and strengthening community connection through shared artistic experience.
Magdalena Rudnicka is a community artist based in South Tipperary. Originally from Poland, she has lived in Ireland for over 20 years. She works collaboratively with communities to create inclusive art projects that celebrate lived experience, creativity, and connection wit
