Arts Alive Galway are delighted to unveil two exceptional audio-visual pieces created in collaboration with artist Jane Cassidy. Identity delves into the multifaceted identities of ten artists with intellectual disabilities.
People with intellectual disabilities are often marginalised in society, they can go unseen and their voices unheard. By showcasing the identity of 10 individuals with intellectual disabilities IDENTITY aims to challenge preconceived notions around people with intellectual disabilities and reshape the way the world sees them. By showcasing their perspectives and lives the exhibition seeks to dismantle stereotypes and to amplify their voices. Proudly supported by Galway City Arts Office and Brothers of Charity Services Ireland. Tickets:

Galway, brought together a jolly crew of artists and performers to collaborate over two days. It was so fun to play, experiment and make with no expectations or deadlines. Thank you so much to the Arts Council Ireland for funding this project and to Twisted Lane to kick-starting conversations, collaborations and games.

We were led by Anna Newell to develop theatre for the very very very young (0-1 year olds). Massive thanks to The Performance Corporation for bringing us together and Arts Council Ireland for funding this delightful project.
April 30th at the Museum of Country Life in Castlebar. Free tickets. Info and links here.
Been working hard with Breda Burns and the Mayo Artsquad to make newe site specific installations that will make the museum grounds exceptionally mystical on the eve of Bealtaine.
I recently made a music video for my mighty Alabaman friend Turner Williams. I really enjoyed finding all the patterns in his tune Droplet. The video was premiered on Raven Sings the Blues. The video was shot on Valentia Island on some wild water.
Myself and Breda Burns are resident artists with Artsquad, making work in response to the collection at the Museum of Country Life, Castlebar, Co. Mayo, Ireland. Our work will be presented as part of a nighttime event on Bealtaine Eve, April 30th. Supported by the Arts Council.
