Maureen Gallagher
a subsidized flat in a Belfast housing estate
Maureen Gallagher spends her days folding sheets in the hospital laundry, accompanied by the constant rhythm of tumble dryers. Her solitary nights in her Belfast flat revolve around the echoes of the estate settling into its nocturnal quiet, a cacophony only she seems attuned to. Evenings are given to remembering meals shared with loved ones, each dish an anchor to a past that whispers beneath the static of her current solitude.
