Ann Cleare

for voices, percussion, and electronics 

Immersing the main gallery of Cobh’s Sirius Arts Centre, in the very south of Ireland, Brian O’Doherty’s One Here Now presents a fugue of nine wall paintings, connected by lines, symbols, and colours. Created in response to this newly-restored space, Ann Cleare’s site-specific work, A Sonic Theatre, takes the audience on a sonic journey around this colourful labyrinth, exploring its complex layers and translating them into a theatre of sound and motion.
