When hanging his show at the Crawford, artist Corban Walker didn't take a conventional approach. The Dublin-born artist is four feet tall, and decided to hang the works as low as possible.

“I brought them down to my eye level, which may seem low for other people, but it actually relates to the other variable heights within the gallery; the door handles, the corners of the walls and all that,” he says.
