Aoife McAtamney 'The Fourteenth Visit' as part of Tiger Dublin Fringe
Venue: RHA Gallery, 15 Ely Place, Dublin 2
Date / Time: 20th September 2014 @ 3pm
Free, unticketed event.
Each day during Fringe three dancers visit the Royal Hibernian Academy, which hosts the retrospective exhibition of celebrated landscape artist Maria Simonds-Gooding. Separately, they playfully collect movement ideas inspired by the art work and its surroundings. In the second week, renowned fiddle player Caoimhín Ó Raghallaigh takes on the routine. On the final day, they all meet. Before your eyes they tease out, confront and instantly compose each other's gathered discoveries creating a rapidly shifting improvised performance. This revealing and fresh process marks the first choreographic collaboration with the RHA in nearly 20 years.
“Succeeds in achieving that elusive thing: distilling an aspect of human experience that can’t be verbalised.” — Irish Theatre Magazine.
Supported by the RHA, with thanks to Maria Simonds - Gooding.
