interviews & Stories
Dublin is the city where we live, where some of us grew up. It's a city on the edge of a country, on the edge of a continent, that sometimes thinks it's the centre of everything. More than anything, Dublin is a city full of people. It's brimming with people who choose it as their place to love and to lose, to try and to fail - to live, for better or worse.
We're meeting people who live and work in the city to hear a part of their story and tell it to you. Stories colour our lives. We tell them to each other every day. The art of fiction and the filter of fact. Project Bowes is a place where both these things collide.
Every time we meet someone, we'll post an interview. Alongside that, we'll post a fictional story inspired by the person we've met. We tell real stories from real people and we tell new stories from possible people. Facts and fictions.

The Things We Were Told / Interviews
With recorder in hand, we're taking to the streets and knocking on doors to meet the people who inhabit the city. We're getting a glimpse into everyday, extraordinary lives as they tell us their stories – the stories of themselves.
The Stories We Tell / Stories
Our lives are not just made up of facts, they are filled in by imaginations, exaggerations and dreams. It's part of how we make sense of things. We want to show how the door to the real world can be unlocked through the lens of the imagined one.
The Things We Saw / Photos
Step inside the worlds of the people we meet. Here you will find full photo galleries of all the places we go and stories we hear.
