Saibhreas is a new project developed by Common Knowledge, project coordinator Aoife Hammond and Artists Amir Abualrob and Sorcha Fox.<\/p>\n
Saibhreas is an Irish word that translates to \u2018richness\u2019 or \u2018wealth\u2019 – In the Irish language it is often though of as a richness not from wealth but from connection – with this project we are focusing on the richness that comes from interpersonal connection and exchange and the community
that can be built from sharing stories.<\/p>\n
