Gravity Express #1
In late 2021 artist Kate O’Shea began a process of critical reflection and review of twelve years of her artistic practice with mentor Dr Ciaran Smyth. Gravity Express #1 is a publication which they co-constructed with a view to sharing some insights from that mentoring process. Focusing on the ruptures, transitions and re-formulations over the course of Kate’s sustained commitment to art and activism, Gravity Express captures some fragments from their work together in the form of a critical archaeology of artistic becomings. Presented in the style of the popular tabloid newspaper, it was first made publicly available as part of an in-conversation event at the Cork Mid-Summer Festival, June 2022.
Gravity Express #1 was in part supported by an Arts Council Of Ireland Artist in the Community (AIC) Scheme Bursary Award in Collaborative Arts and Community Development, awarded to Kate O’Shea.
