DESCRIPTION:Cork Printmakers present hay boy\, gay boy\, a solo exhibition 
	by\ninterdisciplinary artist Maitiú Mac Cárthaigh at Cork Printmakers Stud
	io Gallery\nfrom 10 September – 12 November.\n\nMac Cárthaigh’s work explo
	res the rural sexual imaginary. Within this\, Mac\nCárthaigh’s practice fo
	cuses on rural gentrification\, homonormativity\,\ngreenwashing\, and the 
	material economies of space and place. They approach work\nthrough a Count
	ry Boy’s Make-Do methodology\, drawing on a Co-Op materiality. Mac\nCártha
	igh’s practice examines how we construct different kinds of rural space\nw
	ith a materiality not rooted in rurality but with things that come in off 
	the\nback of a lorry to be bought off the shelf.\n\nhay boy\, gay boy buil
	ds from Mac Cárthaigh’s writing practice set in Ballybent\,\na semi-fictio
	nal slice of gentrified countryside heaven made for urban\nconsumption. Th
	is work follows a throuple who recently relocated from the City\nto Ballyb
	ent. Life is great\, slow and healing with nature all around. That is\,\ne
	xcept for delivery delays from Dublin and Berlin. Desperate to make their 
	long\nweekend bacchanal with the boys from the city a success\, the throup
	le rush to\nthe Co-Op to see what gear they might fashion from bullrings a
	nd builder’s\ntwine.\n\nThis exhibition coincides with Mac Cárthaigh’s exh
	ibition\, thirty 6-inch\ntop-down all-purpose at the LHQ Gallery in Cork C
	ounty Hall. thirty 6-inch\ntop-down all-purpose explores the interconnecti
	vity of oat flat whites\,\nartificial insemination and rustic sodomy amids
	t a rapidly yassifying rural\nIreland. This exhibition is supported throug
