RHA Gallery – Open Studios Naomi Sex & Anishta Chooramun
Naomi Sex & Fál Linntreog present M*A*S*H
23 November 2019 | 15.00 | RHA Studio
M*A*S*H is an afternoon screening of artists’ video works at the RHA life drawing room curated by Fál Linntreog*
FL proposes a series of one-off shows that take place in spaces which offer opportunity for events and exhibitions, and is born out of necessity being self-funded and roving. Recent events include a performative artist talk in The Gatekeeper’s Lodge in Malahide Demesne and a live performance in an artist’s live-in studio at the Firestation Studios in Dublin’s city centre. Fál Linntreog values collaboration, is interested in the overlap between arts and crafts, and aims to give artists and their audiences an opportunity to produce and engage with artworks in informal and unexpected ways.
This screening at the RHA School will allow the audience to encounter video works collectively at a seated, cinema-style event within a space redolent with tradition, intimacy and intense visual scrutiny: the life-drawing room. Approximate running time: 70 mins.
Artists include:
*Beth Collar *Niamh Davis *Charlotte Develter *Michelle Doyle *Mathilde Ganancia
*Ann Maria Healy *Callum Hill *Barbara Knezevic *Kevin O’Kelly *Eoghan Ryan
