Unmasking Nature

Disrupt Disability Arts Festival

Image of an artwork by Ruth Le Gear. An iridescent orb floats on a black background. Blue, purple and mauve colours swirl across its glasslike surface. The image resembles that of a planet in deep space.

Distinct

The ruin of a round stone castle sits on a tiny island on a lake, the island is just big enough for the tower. One side of the tower has crumbled away. Trees surround the island and disappear into the water, birds fly across the sky. The reflection of the tower is clearly seen in the still water, creating a mirror image. The weather is grey and foggy obscuring the boundary between the water and the sky.

The Waking Walls

Our Place

An angled projector screen depicting rippling waves in a rainbow of directions and colours. A silhouette of an individual wearing headphones sits in front of the projections. Next to them is a tablet on a stand.

Augmented Body, Altered Mind

Three different scales of artificial large free-swimming creatures similar to that of a jellyfish. The centre jellyfish is the largest in the frame. The jellyfish creatures hover, with its umbrella-shaped encasing resembling a metallic pulsing brain with a jutting out tentacle to its side. The trailing tentacles are depicted as metallic legs with fragments of amber light bouncing on the tentacles. The background is jet black.

Silicone Synapse

The photograph of Smugglers Cave,Portrane, Co.Dublin. The image depicts the immersiveness of being inside a cave.The opening of the cave mouth is facing outwards to the sea. The powerful tide is coming in, filling the entire entrance. The light of the sky bounces off the waves and begins to creep into the heart of the cavern.

Entirely hollow aside from the dark

A dark image of intertwined foliage. A mixture of plants typically found in an Irish hedgerow, including ivy, brambles and moss.

Caoineadh Dúlra

Foram

Waves striking against each other in a sea of deep darkness. Pockets of strong contrasts between light and dark are exaggerated by the juxtaposition of the highlights of white ripples against the shadows of the black sea underneath.
