Closing Event of €URODANC€ at Pallas Projects/Studios in Dublin


Echoing the rhythms of club-culture, and in reference to the approach of club [construction], this closing iteration of €URODANC€ takes cues the cyclical nature of club-spaces themselves: where spaces are never fixed for very long, always in flux - built, broken down, reimagined and then built back up. 

In this spirit, €URODANC€ returns for its final day, slightly changed. 

Not as it was, but briefly renewed, reinstalled, relit and momentarily reimagined…

…before it fades away.

Dance/Movement Response by Nick Nickolou


Absolutely honoured to share that Nick Nikolaou / Nick Libra will be performing a movement response to €URODANC€ within the exhibition tomorrow at Dublin Modular’s “Queer By Nature” Pride Yard Party at Pallas Projects / Studios. Their performances trace gestures of release, touch and transformation, drawing from the spirit of queer nightlife and the fragile histories that move through these spaces. They are fleeting, intimate and deeply felt. These moments will be unannounced, ephemeral, intuitive and shaped by the atmosphere of the day. You might catch a glimpse, or you might miss it entirely - a delicate gesture that resists being held.

Essay Response by James Ó Muirithe


€URODANC€ features a beautiful essay by James Ó Muirithe that explores the club-space as a powerful site of ritual, community and transformation.  James reveals how clubs operate within liminal, in-between realms, spaces where everyday reality is suspended but never erased, haunted by deep histories of marginalisation and resistance. Nightclubs emerge as fluid, neo-tribal sanctuaries where identities are not just performed by fiercely subverted and radically reimagined, all while echoing primal human instincts to gather and dance to repetitive beats.

“The club’s capacity for framing and reframing moves it beyond being simply a zone of ritualised play, nor only an evasion of structure. It is a space where past exclusions, present desires, and speculative futures flicker together under the strobe. Rather than classification it seeks attunement: to the bodies it gathers, the thresholds it opens, the forms it dissolves, and the time it disfigures. Through its own passage states, it dissolves itself and lingers in sweat, dance, and time.” 

James’ essay is available to read in the gallery, to take home. Massive thank you to James for sharing his incredible insights and for playing such an important role in shaping the project over the past few months. His thoughtful contribution adds a really considered perspective to €URODANC€ that I deeply appreciate.

Spray-Painting T-Shirt Workshop at Pallas Projects/Studios


Spray-painting stencil t-shirts has long been a tool of resistance and self-expression in the contexts of protest, particularly in marginalised communities, as a means to convey bold, urgent messages. All stencil imagery has been pulled from ephemera unearthed during this research project; signs, logos, flyers, tiny fragments of nights that might otherwise be forgotten. The workshop hopes to celebrate those fleeting histories, giving new life to overlooked objects and inviting them to speak again.

Alongside the club ephemera stencils, the workshop will also feature Y2K-inspired summer tattoo designs, drawing on the glittery nostalgia of a summer holiday dancefloor. These playful graphics sit alongside a series of bold, slogan-style designs influenced by the visual language of 90s Ibiza superclubs’ outrageous tag-lines and souvenir t-shirts. Together they bring a sense of fun and fantasy, capturing both the dreamy escapism of beachside dancefloors and the raw urgency of grassroots nightlife culture. Materials will be provided, but attendees are also encouraged to bring their own t-shirts, bags, fabrics - anything that you’d like to transform. With a hands-on DIY approach, attendees are invited to stencil, spray and create the t-shirts themselves and is an opportunity to make something entirely unique whist embracing the same DIY ethos that has defined Irish nightlife culture over the past few decades.

District Magazine Review and Interview:  
“This Exhibition Feels Like A Love Letter To The Queer Dance Floor”


Ireland’s relationship with queer nightlife is anything but straightforward. Dublin has just one dedicated queer nightclub, yet across the country, queer club nights remain some of the most vital, experimental spaces in contemporary culture. In these temporary venues, warehouses, basements, repurposed pubs, music, identity and resistance come together, creating something powerful in its impermanence.This ability to thrive in the impermanence is something Reuben Brown’s €URODANC€ aims to explore. Presented by Pallas Projects/Studios, this exhibition is built from memory, music, and moments that often slip through the cracks of official histories, the show reimagines the nightclub as both archive and altar: a space where joy and heartbreak mingle under the lights, and where fleeting connections leave lasting emotional residues.

€URODANC€, A Solo-Exhibition by Reuben Brown, Opening at Pallas Projects/Studios; Dublin


€URODANC€ explores the shifting terrain of club-spaces of the past, present and imagined future, where the dance floor becomes both sanctuary and spectacle, resistance and release. Through moments of belonging, betrayal, break-up, revenge, recovery and renewal, it delves into how the sensory experience of clubbing, its sounds, sparkling lights and pulsating rhythms, mirrors the emotional contours of queer love, longing and loss.

There is a quiet intimacy in these encounters, a subtle yet profound connection between dancers, where the club transforms into a site where emotion lingers and connection, though fleeting, feels boundless. At the heart of this is Eurodance: a genre defined by its infectious melodies, ecstatic vocals, throbbing basslines and anthem-like choruses. Its emotional excess embodies the fleeting joy and lingering ache of queer romance, offering a sonic language for the ecstasies and heartbreaks that shimmer and dissolve beneath the strobe.

€URODANC€ is generously supported by White Claw® Hard Seltzer, with drinks provided on the opening night. 

Artist-Initiated Projects at Pallas Projects / Studios is an open-submission, annual gallery programme of 8 x 3-week exhibitions taking place from March-November. This unique programme of funded, artist-initiated projects selected via open call is highly accessible to artists, with a focus on early career, emerging artists and recent graduates. Projects are supplemented with artist’ talks, texts, workshops or performances, and gallery visits by colleges and local schools. 

Venue: Pallas Projects / Studios, 115-117 The Coombe, The Liberties, Dublin 8, Ireland.

White Knuckle Forever, Debut International 
Solo-Exhibition at Culterim Gallery, Berlin


White Knuckle Forever is a love letter to the fleeting - a pulse held in tension, an echo in the dark. It traces the whispered intimacies that shape queer lives, unravelling the quiet gestures of queer masculine romance: breaths held, bodies tighten, white knuckled fists clench. 

White Knuckle Forever, Reuben Brown’s debut international solo-exhibition at Culterim Gallery in Berlin, Germany. [Gesundbrunnen, Brunnenstraße 107, 13355, Berlin, Germany]

March 06 - 09, 2025
PV: 06, 6-9pm

Set within queer club-spaces of the past, White Knuckle Forever dances through the fragile histories of queer nightlife that press against the present. Through experimental film, sculpture, works on paper, jewellery, participation and performance, and a research pamphlet/artist book developed alongside the exhibition, White Knuckle Forever becomes a precarious archive of both devotion and disappearance.

Propagate (in collaboration with Catalyst Arts & Ponyhawke)


Super excited to be working with Catalyst Arts for this year’s edition of Propagate, inspired by various transitory club-spaces and club-communities in Ireland, with a specific focus on the six counties, “YOU WOULDN’T CLOSE A CLUB AT 3AM” aims to investigate the past, present and the imagined future of club-culture in Northern Ireland. Propagate is a public programme of workshops and events, in the Catalyst Arts gallery, off-site and online, organised by Catalyst Arts. 



Collaboration, textile workshops, music, dance and conversation are the thematic seeds of this year’s programme. This cross-disciplinary approach will result in a unique sharing of knowledge, as the workshops explore and play with the development of Belfast’s nightlife, club culture and DIY music and cultural events, creating a platform for dissemination. The Propagate programme allows for a collective, creative exchange and cultivates new ways of working within artistic practices.

Seeds will be sown and ideas rooted…
…see you on the dancefloor

Pallas Projects/Studios Artist Initiated Projects 2025 Annoucement


Absolutely delighted to have been selected for Pallas Projects/Studios @pallas.projects.studios Artist Initiated Projects 2025! 

Taking cues from the high-camp euphoria of European pop and dance music - from Italo disco to ‘90s Europop, to hard house, €URODANC€ revels in the neon-lit, sweat-slicked ecstasy of the dance floor. The exhibition channels the fleeting, hyperreal rush of a Euro summer: sun-scorched beaches, wind-in-your-hair, thumping basslines, heartbreak strobing in 4/4 time, and the bittersweet pull of a song that feels like forever, but only lasts a season. Through moments of belonging and betrayal, break-up and revenge, recovery and renewal, €URODANC€ captures the shifting club-landscapes of the past, present and the imagined future - where club-culture is both sanctuary and spectacle, resistance and release.


From Pallas Projects/Studios: Artist-Initiated Projects at Pallas Projects/Studios is an open-submission, annual gallery programme of 8 x 3-week exhibitions taking place between March and November 2025. This unique programme of funded, artist-initiated projects selected via open call is highly accessible to artists, with a focus on early career, emerging artists and recent graduates. Projects are supplemented with artists’ talks, texts, workshops or performances, and gallery visits by colleges and local schools.

Artist-Initiated Projects aims to act as an incubator for early careers, and support artists’ practices at crucial stages, providing a platform for artists to produce and exhibit challenging work across all art forms. The model of short-run exhibitions with a relatively short turnaround time of 3–6 months is an alternative to the normal institutional model, where the process of studio visit to exhibition can take several years. Shorter lead-in times allow the programme to be quick and responsive, reflect what artists are currently making, and encourage experimentation and risk-taking.

Xeno-Futurism Feature


Delighted to contribute to Xeno-Futurism’s (@xeno_futurism) second issue “Technologies of Domination”. Xeno-Futurism is an experimental journal dedicated to critical theory from abstract perspectives, amplifying the margins.

From Xeno-Futurism:
“We are excited to introduce to you the contributors for issue 2 ‘Technologies of Domination’. We have a collection of incredible theory-fiction, essays, poetry, and artworks that delve into the complexities of cyborgian dilemmas, explore marginalised bodies as potential weapons against the Oculus (Capital’s omnipotent eye), critically analyse surveillance technologies, interrogate the immanence of the cybernetic phylum of Capital and its possibilities, as well as consequences, bring a deeply Daoist cosmotechnical approach to our relationship to technics lacking in European thought and envisioning speculative eco-social and decolonised xeno-futures. Through thorough examination, these essays challenge conventional ontologies and propose a radical rethinking of our interrelations with technology, technics and artificial intelligence.”

Arts Council of Northern Ireland Interview


It was great to get speaking to Clare McComish, Visual Arts Officer at the Arts Council of Northern Ireland about QSS Artist Studios and Gallery to celebrate the 40th Anniversary as the longest running artist studios in Northern Ireland! 

From the Arts Council of Northern Ireland: Northern Ireland’s longest running studio space for professional visual artists is celebrating its 40th birthday with a special exhibition featuring 61 works from past and present members.  Supported by National Lottery Funding from the Arts Council of Northern Ireland, Queen Street Studios (QSS) is a home from home for a broad spectrum of visual artists, working across a range of mediums. The creative hub offers artists the privacy and peace of their own studio space, while also being a collective hub for meeting, collaboration and exhibition. Although once based on Queen Steet itself, today the studio occupies a large site on East Belfast’s Bloomfield Avenue, where the current exhibition, curated by Eamonn Maxwell, will be on display and open to the public until Thursday 12th December. Running across two floors, the vibrant, large-scale exhibition showcases the broad range of practices, from emerging and established artists, that have shaped Queen Street Studios as it is today.
  
Clare McComish, Visual Arts Officer at the Arts Council of Northern Ireland, commented: “QSS has been at the very centre of visual arts development in Northern Ireland for four decades, a place where artists are nurtured and supported and where they have space to dedicate themselves to their practice. It has always been a place where we have seen established artists supporting other emerging artists, as they start to carve their own promising careers for themselves. This exhibition is a fitting tribute to QSS, as it was and as it is today, and a reflection of its artists, from its beginnings, to present day who have achieved local, national and international acclaim.”

CLUB [CONSTRUCTION] vs ULSTER SPORTS CLUB! Opening


CLUB [CONSTRUCTION] vs ULSTER SPORTS CLUB ! is a solo-exhibition and experiential installation by Reuben Brown at Ulster Sports Club, Belfast, opening on November 7th at 6pm-Late.

Following “cloakroom” at club [construction] ! at DAS/Digital Art Studios, CLUB [CONSTRUCTION] vs ULSTER SPORTS CLUB ! stems from an ongoing research-project into queer club-culture. Originating from a fascination with the physical proximity between avant-garde queer club-communities with heterosexual working-class sports clubs in industrial Western-European port cities, the show explores the unexpected cultural phenomena that emerges when these seemingly opposing worlds collide.

CLUB [CONSTRUCTION] vs ULSTER SPORTS CLUB! Announcement


CLUB [CONSTRUCTION] vs ULSTER SPORTS CLUB ! is a solo-exhibition and experiential installation by Reuben Brown at Ulster Sports Club, Belfast, opening on November 7th at 6pm-Late.

Following “cloakroom” at club [construction] ! at DAS/Digital Art Studios, CLUB [CONSTRUCTION] vs ULSTER SPORTS CLUB ! stems from an ongoing research-project into queer club-culture. Originating from a fascination with the physical proximity between avant-garde queer club-communities with heterosexual working-class sports clubs in industrial Western-European port cities, the show explores the unexpected cultural phenomena that emerges when these seemingly opposing worlds collide.



Inspired by a queered interpretation of Jean-Pierre Faye’s ‘Horseshoe Theory’, CLUB [CONSTRUCTION] vs ULSTER SPORTS CLUB ! blurs the props, codes and practiced pageantry of hyper-masculinity, sports-spectatorship and fan-culture, with the camp extravagance of queer masculinity, diva-worship and the queer club-space. Faye’s theory suggests that extreme opposites in a linear continuum - such as hyper-male heterosexuality and flamboyant queer masculinity - do not polarise but curve towards each other, revealing surprising parallels in their aesthetic theatricality and performance. 

CLUB [CONSTRUCTION] vs ULSTER SPORTS CLUB ! utilises a combination of sculptural interjections and a series of experimental films. Strategically poised within Ulster Sports Club’s upstairs bar, the Committee Room, these investigate the theatricality of rehearsed masculinity and the trained rituals of sports-spectatorship in conjunction with the spectacle of diva-worship, realness and queer machismo in the shadow of internalised homophobia. CLUB [CONSTRUCTION] vs ULSTER SPORTS CLUB ! invites the audiences to grab a seat at the bar and witness how these opposing worlds twist, fold and fade into each other in unexpected ways.

INFERNO at Colour Factory


Super excited to debut a new film “FLUORESCENT” at INFERNO at Colour Factory in London tomorrow! 

The film has been created with support from INFERNO (@inferno_london) through the INFERNO Residency Program 2024, and wouldn’t have been possible without the love & support from Lewis G. Burton (@lewisgburton) & everyone behind INFERNO <3. 

The film hopes to explore various transient club-spaces from Ireland and the United Kingdom over the last few decades, with a particular focus towards that of Banbridge, in Northern Ireland. by examining queer and queer-adjacent club-ephemera, “FLUORESCENT” dances between the fleeting and transitory County Down club-spaces of the past, present, and the imagined future (…?).

Royale Arcade Academy


Very excited to have my new film “glory (in two parts)” included in Arcade Gallery and Studios’ third annual “Royale Arcade Academy”, opening on October 3rd 2024 on Late Night Art.

“glory” stems from the findings of a long term research project into the histories of queer club-culture, originating from a fascinating adjacency of avant-garde queer club-communities with heterosexual working class sports clubs in industrial Western-European cities (such as London, Berlin, Amsterdam, Manchester and Belfast), and the strange, occasional, cultural phenomena of these polarising club sub-cultures merging as a result of their close proximity. 

The two channels of “glory” are screened simultaneously, side by side as they explore diva-worship, celebrity, fandom and spectatorship. Inspired by a queered-interpretation of Jean-Pierre Faye’s “Horseshoe Theory” that claims that extreme opposites in a linear continuum closely resemble each other, “glory” blurs the props, codes and indicators of hyper-masculinity, fandom, sports-spectatorship and fan-culture, with the camp extravagance of queer masculinity and the queer club-space. 

This film has become the starting point for a new body of work which will be presented in an exciting upcoming exhibition this winter…⏳
