about

Hymn of the Dawn is a sound collage made on the occasion of an exhibition in A4 Sounds in August, 2018. The piece is a meditation on Dublin City in its crisis state of gentrification and capitalism and is an ode to the artists, activists and people who have walked the canal over the years and continue to keep the heart of the city beating.

"Hymn of the Dawn responds to the overwhelming stimulants we face day to day in the city, particularly the area of Dorset Street which is being gentrified to facilitate student housing and fast food chains and has seen a rise in rental prices over the last years. The work is largely focused on the activity of walking, listening, and looking as an act of rebellion – intervening in the expected flow of capitalism by becoming a participant in what Derek Jarman called ‘Modern Nature’. She will explore the advantages and limits of this kind of walkway through photography, field recording, and film. She will unearth the social structures that ebb and flow around the waterway and lose herself in the simple activity of being amongst the wild flowers of the canal. Sounds, colour and images still and moving will come together in a room in A4 sounds where locals are invited to sit, meditate, and reflect on their changing urban landscape. By re-purposing the noise, scents and spirit of the canal inside the four walls of a modern city building, she questions our connection to the outdoors, urges viewers to reconnect with a more organic element of their home, and investigates the changing meaning of canals and rivers in urban settings."

This project is supported under the Fingal Arts Office Artists’ Support Scheme 2018.
