Some of the key scenes in The Betrayal are set at a fundraiser in an art gallery. Thanks to our partnership with D-Light Studios, a multimedia space in a 150-year-old warehouse in the North Inner Centre of Dublin, these scenes have a truly unique backdrop.

A primary element of those scenes is the ballet-related photography exhibition taking place in the gallery.  Numerous photographers from all over the world answered our appeal, and we are very proud to have received art from all over Europe, and even from California and Canada.

Choosing the 24 pieces that are going to be featured in the art exhibition scene was truly difficult, so high was the quality of the pieces submitted.  We would like to thank all the artists who submitted their work to us.  Here are the names of the photographers whose work is featured in The Betrayal:

• Donal Moloney (Ireland):  his work has been displayed throughout the world and includes campaigns for Coca Cola, Kellogg’s, Bank of Ireland and Vodafone, to name but a few. He also photographed Sinead O’Connor for her latest album, and you might know his amazing Urbex series.

• Andrea Paolini Merlo (Hungary): a photographer, dancer and choreographer with the Hungarian National Ballet Company.
