We first encountered the work of Morag Myerscough on these shores when the late John Reynolds brought the UK artist over to create the Together Bandstand for the inaugural edition of All Together Now in 2018. “John loved my ‘Temple of Agape’ and I wanted to make a new piece of work that was unique to his new festival,” said Morag.
Now she returns with A Good Night’s Sleep – a bold, colourful, immersive intervention which is the culmination of over ten months working with the Irish Refugee Council’s Youth Service, DoubleTake Studio, New Horizon HUB, and the Tallaght Ukrainian community to explore the multifaceted theme of ‘belonging’.
The participants shared their hopes and dreams, fears and struggles in workshops led by the artist. The groups connected using the power of colour, word, and sound to express themselves.
Rua Red until March 3.
