SEX! DEVIANCE! DANGER! | Arlene Caffrey at An Táin Arts Centre

Event Details

This playful, embodied art-based research moves through muscle, skin and memory to explore how gender identity, self-expression and self-actualization are experienced among individuals practicing recreational pole dancing in Ireland. Here, pole dancing becomes a site of discovery, creation and expression of both the individual and collective socio-political self. The solid and the ephemeral dance together through sculpture, words, images, light, sound and colour. The exhibition is accompanied with live performance art.

This art-based research is funded by Research Ireland’s Government of Ireland Postgraduate Scholarship Programme.

Opening Launch Wednesday 24th June 7pm.
