WHAT PEOPLE Wrote
A Secret Journey
Your history together brought us to many unknown lands. You left us feeling we witnessed a secret journey. Cats. Ships passing. String. Sisters. Everyone who has peopled this room. Honoring every moment together. Honoring space. Figurative and literal. Timing of join-ups. Use of room. Start > Finish. Complete.
A Miracle in Nature
"Puzzle-like configurations of two bodies coming together. One body moving another, yet not mechanic, but purely organic. Felt like watching a miracle in nature that happened once in a hundred years; like a waterfall full of glowing stars."

"It was beautiful—a cascading shifting relationship with each other and the space that wasn't quite human, in a world where there wasn't quite verticality. But y'all also managed to be firmly connected—an umbilical cord between you. Thank you for your clarity and simplicity of structure; all felt helpful in these dark days. "

Double: body as source is a meeting of minds between Violinist-Composer Emer Kinsella, Dancer-Choreographer Megan Lowe, and Visual Artist Mary Little. Devised and created by Emer & Megan, this experimental duet of movement and sound responds to both Mary’s series Double and Eavan Boland’s poem Anna Liffey. In celebration of International Women’s Day, we invite you to step into this multidisciplinary collaboration, created by Irish artists in the Western US.
Due West celebrates the cultural links between Ireland and America, profiling Irish Artists traversing the Western US. Due West invites you to steal a glimpse into their journey - a moment stopped still - before continuing on their way, carrying with them their craft and their stories.
Join them, Due West.
