The Dingle Union Workhouse and Hospital that was active during the Great Famine currently sits abandoned with a potent history that is very present in lives and the minds of the community and wider national and international psyche. There are plans for the building to change use and the actions and gestures performed in this film seek to mark it as it stands; embodying traces of its visceral histories through the spiritual, supernatural and somatic. 

​

Abandoned objects within the building used: peeled wallpaper; oval mirror; dust; spoon; religious painting; walking sticks; vines; carpet tiles; fake flowers and floral foam.

Materials carried: black veil, fabric cocoon; shoes
