Niamh Barry

We are so excited to welcome the amazing talent that is Niamh Barry, a queer Irish photographer and visual storyteller.

Hot off winning ‘Best Short Documentary’ at BAFTA qualifying Manchester Film Festival with her doc “Something In The Air”, Niamh is making waves!

Rooted in a deeply personal exploration of identity, Niamh’s award-winning practice has been featured in Ireland’s RHA Annual Show, EU photography programme FUTURES 23, Photo Network Ireland’s Diversity Award & Residency, selected for BJP’s “Portrait of Humanity 2024” not to mention Photo Museum Ireland’s “Talents 2025” and Taylor Weissing’s Irish Photo Prize 2026 exhibition. 😮‍💨

If that wasn’t enough, Niamh is also a three-time recipient of The Arts Council Agility Award.

Now certified as a “Climate Aware & Carbon Literate Photographer”, Niamh’s practice is as thoughtful as it is visually powerful, and clearly, she’s only getting started!

We can’t wait to chat to Niamh and hear about her creative journey, her love of photography & passion for amplifying underrepresented voices and the exciting journey it’s taken her on.
