4 O'Clock TEAS, an Outrider platform for dialogue and meeting artists curators at Huuto Gallery, Helsinki, funded by Culture Ireland, Hosted by Maria Kerin and Fiona O'Dwyer
The starting point for conversations is our varied relation to time and displacement, echoed in Fiona O'Dwyers work on exhibit in Huuto gallery, 10-26th Sept.
Fiona O’Dwyer’s exhibition I Went Up the Mountain With Someone Else's Story and Came Down With My Own centers around the idea and reality of Human Movement: taking as a starting point, her connection to her family’s migration and displacement in 1950’s Ireland. Her ideas are articulated through the works’ performative nature, its relation to place and time, and its materiality.
"What comes through as a result are echoes of a distant space in time, transposed from real points on a landscape in which a narrative or sound once existed and was played out.
What has become evident however is that I forgot the future and so it goes on.” O’Dwyer, 2016
