A L T A R
A L T A R is a site-responsive intervention for Goldenbridge Cemetery by artist Clodagh Emoe and architect Donal Lally.
We are delighted to be supporting artist Clodagh Emoe and architect Donal Lally with A L T A R, a site-responsive intervention for Goldenbridge Cemetery.
A L T A R explores how we, the living and the dead, are intrinsically connected with the natural world. A L T A R draws on the material and essence of plant life, creating a gathering space between the interior of the 18th-century Mortuary Chapel and the canopy of the ancient Beech Tree.
The launch of A L T A R takes place on Thursday 12th September at 7pm in Goldenbridge Graveyard, St Vincent Street West, Inchicore, Dublin 8. For more information and to book a free ticket please go to Eventbrite: Launch of A L T A R
A L T A R will be activated by a programme of events every Thursday at 7pm and every Sunday at 2pm.
A L T A R closes on 29th September.
