FREE EVENING OF MUSIC & PERFORMANCES AT THE WATERFORD GALLERY OF ART AS PART OF IMAGINE ARTS FESTIVAL. 7PM, WED 26th OCT 2022
To coincide with the ‘Portraits: People & Place’ exhibition (8th Sept 2022 – Spring 2023), the Waterford Gallery of Art will be presenting a series of sound portraits by musicians, artists and those working with sound to spotlight how identity, representation and lived experiences are captured creatively beyond the canvas.
This commission is part of WGOA’s ambition to produce artworks that encourage audiences to think about ‘What exactly is a portrait? What stories are being told? How best can artists represent people, character, essence, narrative and emotions? What are the differing ways that sound can fulfil this brief?’
Artists performing on the night are:
Cathy Purcell
Gammy Origami
Evan Miles & Cailean Finn
Elle Wadding
Band Of Clouds
Matt Winston
Morgan Ton
