TIDE – Site Specific Performance & Photography

TIDE reflects on the experience of balancing motherhood and artistry, exploring the emotional ups and downs that come with these roles. The performance captures the personal challenges and changes that arise when navigating both aspects of life.

This piece can be seen as a follow-up to A State of Being, a dance film screened at Clifden Arts Week in 2012, continuing the conversation and expanding on its themes.

The pictures were exhibited at Connemara Sands Hotel and were part of a group exhibition by Connemara Muses.
