Set the Darkness Echoing: Three artists. Three projects.
LARAGH CONROY, GRÁINNE MURPHY, RÓNÁN Ó RAGHALLAIGH
Set the Darkness Echoing shows the work of three graduate students of the Master’s programme Art in the Contemporary World (ACW) of the National College of Arts and Design (NCAD) Dublin.
Darkness dropping
Pool of light, circular
Spring of something
Shadow twin ensnared at the centre of the universe
Fluidity, ephemerality, depth
Set the Darkness Echoing shows the work of three people: three different ways of working and three resulting artistic projects. The pieces exhibited, which can be seen in the Return Gallery of the Goethe-Institut Ireland, deal with topics and questions relating to performativity, rituals and concepts of non-linearity. They are different yet find common threads in their multiplicity - they weave and diverge from one another in the same instance. Together they form an archive of land, myth and memory where past, present and future are reflected.
Knots cannot be imitated by machines
We dig, drill, drive and collect
Three screens are installed in the gallery on which each artist displays a component of their research: sound, image and performance. A druidic practice, traces of attunement and a study of embodied knowledge.
