AN GLÉACHT
연도 미상Outsider artist Caoimhín Breathnach (1934–2009) lived as a recluse in Knockvicar, County Roscommon for all his life. Breathnach’s artistic practice focussed on the creation of “subliminal” tapes and films which he believed possessed the capacity to shift consciousness. In these works, Ogham magickal scales, crystallography, astronomy, folklore, and natural phenomena are combined with found audio and visual material to produce an idiosyncratic, esoteric system of correspondences. Breathnach spent the last years of his life planning a work called AN GLÉACHT. The work was to combine subliminal tapes and films with filmed footage showing a sequence of occult rituals. For out of doors, the screening of AN GLÉACHT is accompanied by a live electronic performance by composers Mario de Vega and Tomomi Adachi.
