Kate Murphy's self-portrait Cry me a future (Dublin), pays homage to festive periods spent alone reminiscing about the past and wondering what the future holds. Murphy's recordings of visits to psychics during her travels to Dublin, New York and Sydney, allude to our desire to search for answers of what awaits us in the future while exploring societal anxiety about relationships, money, grief and loss.
