Join us for a participatory walk through the Redwood Bog contemplating deep ecology, memory and local history
PP is a collaborative and participatory performance walk from the Lorrha Dorrha GAA club to the Redwood bog. taking place on the 6th of October 2022 from 11 am to 6pm . Performance artist and video maker Deej Fabyc is the lead artist on this project working in collaboration with Theresia Guschlbauer, Olive O'Meara, James Heenan, Theresa De Burca, Aisling Muller & Clare Hurley as co-developers of this engaged spectacle. The walk is in part in memory of Mark Newell - Deej's partner in love and art who suddenly passed away in May 2023. He originally devised this project with Deej but did not live to see it florish. We all may have lost someone important to us and this walk through a landscape imbued with past ghosts and future memories for many local people will allow space for contemplation away from the distractions of our normal digitised present. The walk will engage with recent and deep time and the climate emergency that is coming.
