Tasting Blue

Tasting Blue is a durational performance installation exploring death and the voyeur. As the spectator looks through a series of holes framed in a web of fishing nets and human hair, the performers attempt to reflect the voyeur through the eye of the body, amidst hundreds of animal bones. Taking a page from the celebratory nature of death in Day of the Dead rituals and certain Eastern cultures, Tasting Blue investigates the primordial, carnal, joyful aspects of death.
 
Tasting Blue originally exhibited as part of The Wild at Project Gallery in November 2016, supported by an Arts Council Dance Bursary Award and Dance Ireland Residency.
