Domo Baal is delighted, proud (and tickled pink) to present Mikey Cuddihy's second solo exhibition in the gallery 'Don't I know Myself?' (named after a painting Cuddihy made in 1998), following on from Broadsheet early last year. Alas, we cannot look into the future as much as we try to, and think we understand of the present. However we can and do look back at the past (whether recent or far distant, personal or political) through the precision lens that the present allows. Identity is explored through its making, doing and thinking and delivered via its materiality.

Works by Mikey Cuddihy have been acquired by: Arts Council England, Contemporary Art Society, Deutsche Bank, Momart in London, Leicestershire Education Authority, Queen Elizabeth Hospital Cancer Centre in Birmingham, Thomas Frangenberg Collection, Soho House in London.
