Bringing together a wide range of Irish sporting personalities, this exhibition offers a glimpse behind the achievements and accolades to reveal the people at the heart of the story.

Featuring GAA players, jockeys, swimmers, boxers and athletes from across the sporting world, the collection spans canvas, metal, wood and paper. From household names to local heroes, each portrait captures a quieter side of its subject, away from the roar of the crowd and the pressure of competition.

Rich in character and craftsmanship, the exhibition celebrates the dedication, resilience and passion that connect sportspeople from all walks of life, inviting visitors to see these familiar figures in a new and more personal light.
