Solo Exhibition curated by Róisín Bohan andBasic Space
Backwater Artists Group, Cork, 2020
Supported by the River Lee Hotel
Sometimes the river flows backwards,
A mouth swallowing up the salty sea,
Gulping it back and retreating to the foothills of the mountains,
Taking water in, not letting water out.
So as you listen, hold a cup in your hands,
And when the words finally stop coming
lift the cup
and drink the ones you caught
like the river
swallowing the sea.
