Hide Ad“I’m the co-founder of the artist collective PINCHY theatre, and the feminist zine PEACHY CLEAN ZINE ((dirty)). I’m most interested in art that lives between mediums and experiments with the possibilities of liveness and co-presence.
“I’m currently hosted in 20 West Street by Hypha Studios, who pair creatives with empty spaces to develop their creative practice for free. You can drop in anytime to see how I work and chat about art.
“Alongside my existing projects, I have been using my time in the space to develop a new concept around dreams and collective cultural memory. This has taken the form of an audio dream walk of Horsham town centre, entitled _DREAMS_, using the app Echoes. _DREAMS_ was born after discovering my late grandfather had written down his dreams. I started to record my own dreams after waking and sought to find correlations between our dream worlds.
“You’ll hear dreams I’ve had, dreams my dad and grandad have had and dreams the people of Horsham have had. I’m interested in intergenerational dreaming and how we dream about people who are no longer with us. _DREAMS_ is accompanied by music composed by my collaborator Fintan Kealy. After you’ve experienced the walk, I invite you to come and visit me in 20 West Street, as I’d love to hear how it made you feel and about your own dream world.
