About us

Mirror Lamp Press is a digital publishing project that explores the intersection of art and literature through the newly commissioned work of artists and writers. It is available online, and each issue can be downloaded as a PDF for free. 

The project aims to publish writing on and around contemporary art and literature that is well-researched, thoughtful, surprising, playful and sometimes experimental. MLP is committed to working with writers in a way that is open, receptive, and dedicated to embracing their authorial voice, which is why there is no house style. It is edited by Gwen Burlington and Eoghan McIntyre and designed by Paul Mulgrew.

If you want to receive the latest issues and stay updated about upcoming events, open calls, radio broadcasts, launches, and uploads, we encourage you to sign up for the mailing list. In today’s digital landscape, where social media platforms are governed by prescriptive algorithms, the mailing list is the most direct line to what we do. 

Since its inception in 2021, the activities of MLP have been supported by the Arts Council of Ireland through visual arts project grants.
