UCC Creative Dance Artist Commission – Helga Deasy
We are delighted to announce that the recipient of this award, Helga Deasy, has been developing a new dance performance in the Glen River Park with fellow dance artist, Sara Hernandez, and musician, Susan McManamon. The work is informed by insights gained on river ecology and the impact of pollution on aquatic environments through a collaboration with aquatic ecologist Dr Neil Coughlan, School of Biological, Earth and Environmental Sciences, UCC.
We are excited to see what will emerge from this collaboration 🙂 The trio will share a performance in the park alongside other outcomes from a year of creative engagement in the Glen River Park as part of the Gleann a’ Phúca Finale Event on Saturday 28th September at 6.15pm – all welcome. More details to follow.
