Made in Dublin brings together Eamonn Doyle’s three extraordinary photography series: i, ON and End. Shot a stone’s throw from his front door, this Dublin trilogy provides a multifaceted portrait of a city undergoing and surviving rapid changes.

This is the city as cinema, just as it revealed itself in real time through the lens
of Eamonn Doyle, re-staging the intertwined looping dramas of the physical city, its light and texture, its psyche, and the movements of its people, as they unfold and pass through. It is about the shapes and beats that they, that we, unconsciously throw together as one. The images of Eamonn's Dublin trilogy have all been made over a short period of years, in the same place and in no particular order, with their thematic patterns and subjects emerging as the work grows exponentially. Made ln Dublin is the first time that the i, ON and End series have been brought together in print as the collaborative, greater entity that it continues to be.

Text vignettes by prize-winning author Kevin Barry enrich the visual trip. Imagining what might be happening just out of frame, Barry gives voice to the otherwise silent Dubliners captured by Doyle’s camera. Including new and unpublished photographs, Niall Sweeney’s design completes what can only be described as an exhilarating surround-sound, cinematic experience in book form.

‘A singular new vision and an original contribution to the development of street photography’ Martin Parr

‘The term “street photographer” damns Doyle with faint praise. He is a chronicler of the city’ Sean O’Hagan
