To conclude our summer programme at Rossbeigh, join us on the beach for this final performance event, where we\u2019ll be returning our stories to the strand through collective song & movement. For this event we\u2019re collaborating with Amano Miura, a singer, songwriter, poet and activist producing work in English and Irish. Born in Ky\u016bsh\u016b and raised in Kerry, her work is inspired by the earth, love, justice, cultural fluidity and the nuances of language(s) spoken and unspoken.<\/p>\n
She writes across styles and genres including free form poetry and spoken word, as well as folk, pop and electronic music. In 2024 Amano was awarded the Traditional Arts Bursary from the Arts Council of Ireland to pursue a personal study in sean-n\u00f3s singing. She is working with the masters of the art form to investigate what it means \u201cto be steeped\u201d in a tradition today.<\/p>\n
Rossbeigh strand is known for its mythical associations with T\u00edr na n\u00d3g. the aura of this particular story reminds us that the place is steeped in tales. through a series of events this summer, we\u2018ll be gathering these local stories, in whichever forms they happen to resurface – told, written, sung, passed down, encountered, divined. they could even be objects, washed up here along the shoreline. by bringing these stories together and experimenting with different ways of circulating them, we hope to create a community resource for sharing knowledge about this shapeshifting coastal area.<\/span><\/p>\n Meeting Point: far end of the car park by the sand dunes<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":0,"featured_media":32165,"template":"","class_list":["post-32164","event","type-event","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\n
