I made Cosán Dearg in collaboration with Jason Byrne and Julie Feeney in 2005. Bernadette and I have revisited the material in various guises since then and each time it’s a different experience, determined by who we are and where we place our new encounter. This section is called ‘Covent Garden’ because we made it in a studio at the Opera House. We’re investigating the work again because it’s strong enough to face whatever our trip to the Dadao Live Art Festival in China may ask of it. Experiencing it alongside the smokers and pedestrians of this walkway in Docklands is good practice too.
The music is by Julie Feeney. (see www.juliefeeney.com for her wonderful award-winning album 13 songs)
