About this Event

Audio-Visual Experience: Faoin Talamh

Come join us for a fantastic performance with Faoin Talamh!

Faoin Talamh is an audio-visual piece that combines reproduced ancient Irish music with visuals of modern Ireland's natural landscape. A collaboration between composer Oisín Murray and visual artist Róisín Doyle, this audio-visual piece features an original score made with the sampled sounds of Irish Bronze Age reproduction instruments. The imagery is made up of many pulsating layers of photographs that complement the atmosphere of the ancient horn music. The film takes inspiration from Irish folklore and sacred historical sites, some of which are featured visually.

Róisín is a multimedia artist from Dublin. Her work makes use of modern video editing technology but is rooted in the Irish impressionist and expressionist movements. Róisín's artistic practice involves the layering, meshing and animation of many original photographs of Irish nature.

Oisín is a composer from Dublin. Having studied Irish Bronze and Iron Age music culture, he began writing new ancient Irish music using samples of reproductions based on 2,000 year old artefacts found all over the island.
