DANCE ARTIST/UCC PLANT SCIENTIST PRESENTATIONS

PRESENTED BY
DANCE CORK FIRKIN CRANE

Dance artists Gráinne O’Carroll and Isabella Oberländer give performance presentations, in collaboration with UCC Plant Scientists Rossana Henriques and Eoin Lettice.

Earlier in 2023, UCC Creative partnered with Dance Cork Firkin Crane, the Environmental Research Institute, and the Crespo Foundation (Frankfurt am Main, Germany) to develop two pilot residencies for Irish / Irish-based dance artists in collaboration with plant scientists from University College Cork in response to Glenkeen Garden in West Cork. Following on from their research periods in Glenkeen Garden, selected dance artists Gráinne O’Carroll and Isabella Oberländer give performance presentations, in collaboration with UCC Plant Scientists Rossana Henriques and Eoin Lettice.

UCC Creative is an initiative to develop and advocate for creative practice at UCC in lively collaboration with local, national and international communities, festivals and creative / cultural industries. UCC Creative Events include public art commissions, workshops, showcases and residencies.
