Description:
A programme of tapes by second generation or expatriate Irish artists which draw on images of the Old Country as seen from (an exile) abroad. A reflective, and timely, look at the rich and perennial influence of Irish history and identity as seen through four very different works (encompassing personal narrative, video art and performance) which echo and affirm the unique cultural egacy of the Irish diaspora.
