forget not the field is a multi media installation created for my BA Hons degree show SEE/SAW in 2018
The work concerns an imagined future which utilizes contemporary narratives regarding the housing crisis and new possibilities of occupying the landscape. These narratives are interrogated through a fictional character based on the Sean BheanBhocht (poor old woman), the personification of Ireland, to address the possibilities and consequences they may cause. The Sean BheanBhocht, representative of the land, which has acted as an archivist of our history and treatment of the space we occupy. The land then is no longer an object but an active listener and story-teller. This piece utilises sound, moving image and installation.
