Thursday Lates Performance: Maïa Nunes - Lake Burst
Advertisement
We're celebrating our new exhibition, Hilma af Klint: Artist and Visionary, with a special Thursday Lates event on 29 October with musical performances, talks, tours and workshops.
We're delighted to welcome interdisciplinary artist Maïa Nunes to the Gallery on the night to perform her recently released album Lake Burst live with a full band in our Shaw Room.
Part of a body of artworks of the same name arising from her relationship with glacial Lough Bré in Glencree, her album explores the geo-mythology of lakes as sites of death and rebirth, as well as portals to the otherworld.
Like all of Maïa’s artwork, this sonic world is full of texture, symbol, mystery and myth. Her voice forms a bridge between worlds as she leads audiences on an atmospheric, layered and experimental musical journey of descent that offers a glimpse of her own personal journey of transformation and healing by lake-water.
The band of stellar musicians includes Brendan Jenkinson (Music Producer for the album and multi-instrumentalist who plays with The Villagers and John Francis Flynn), Drummer (tbc), Derek Whyte (Double Bass) and Steve Welsh (Saxophone).
Free admission - book your free place here: https://nationalgallery.ticketsolve.com/ticketbooth/shows/873667451
Hilma af Klint: Artist and Visionary is organised in collaboration with The Hilma af Klint Foundation.
Presented by Key Capital at 25. Funded as part of the Culture Programme for Ireland’s Presidency of the Council of the European Union 2026.
This Thursday Lates event is a part of the Dublin by Dusk initiative in support of the Night-Time Economy After Hours at the Museum scheme.
