About this event

From Friday 10 to Sunday 12 January between 12pm and 5pm, in the Education Studio at the National Gallery of Ireland, the artist Asbestos will complete an artistic performance, in which he will systematically erase 15 chalk portraits on blackboards.

Each board depicts a memory of his mother Helena, who has Alzheimer’s. The performance will be accompanied by a live degenerative sound installation, created in collaboration with artist and composer, Cian Walker, where Helena’s voice will be played, recorded, and rerecorded, over and over again, onto 49 pieces of vinyl until it has faded into the distance.

Drop-in at the Education Studio, no booking necessary.

Readers are advised to check with the venue before relying on the details published here.
