Fergus Byrne, Fiction, flat 25
Fiction: An installation of drawings in 25 Sean Treacy House where Fergus Byrne spent a year and a half with studio tenure. The work looks at the vistas of the flat complex and brings them inside the flat. Fiction because it is not true. Fiction because of all the plans, only some have been realised.
Clodagh Emoe, Metaphysical Longings, flat 28
The inevitable leveling of the housing scheme where Pallas Heights exists represents more then the destruction of an architectural space, but more so the manifestation of a failed modernist utopian dream. Metaphysical Longings takes place over the course of three evenings, functioning to facilitate participants to engage with and practice meditation.
The evidence of these twilight occurrences at Pallas Heights is left on display alongside participants' visual records and my own sculptural objects/images pertaining to the theme.
Vanessa O'Reilly, SWARM, flat 29
SWARM operates less as a theme and more as a descriptive process. Swarm intelligence is used to describe systems typically made up of a population of simple agents interacting locally with one another and with their environment. Although there is normally no centralised control structure dictating how individual agents should behave, local interactions between such agents often lead to the emergence of global behaviour.
Via, flat 30
Via is a collaborative artist-led initiative, created to explore through art, issues surrounding history, culture and art practice within the context of the changing identity of Dublin city.
Susan Gogan uses large-scale photographic works to examine our relationships with the urban and suburban spatial environments within which we live, work and communicate with each other.
Sally Timmons will document her experience of the last days of Sean Tracey House by 'drawing' the view from the top floor of the soon to be demolished building.
Sarah O'Toole. 'House' allows for thought on universal ideas of the home while also interacting with the physical surroundings of the home it is situated in. 'Curtain' both interacts and makes reference to the home recalling times past in a now vacant place. http://www.via.ie/pages/info.htm
