Caoimhe Kilfeather

Much of Caoimhe Kilfeather’s work to date has been informed by ways in which human experience and memory are expressed through ritual and materiality. For her exhibition at St. Carthage Hall – experiments in living – Kilfeather has created a new installation. This immersive work is suggestive of a ‘new place’, a dwelling of ambiguous occupancy. Elements within this ‘new place’ include the remnants of animal forms, materials that are hewn and polished through geological time and movement, tools used for sifting and sorting as well as discarded by-products of material processes and human production.

The exhibition is accompanied by a leaflet with a commissioned text by writer Ian Maleney, available for free from the gallery.
