"Connect" at Interface Inagh, Galway

Connect – a group show of regional artists from the west of Ireland – took place from September 17 to October 4, 2020. Studio Art Assistant Professor, Jane Cassidy, collaborated with ten regional artists who have been creating community and meeting online every week since March. The exhibition was at the Interface Artist Residency in the Inagh Valley in Connemara, Co. Galway. Interface is situated in a remote rural location sitting above Derryclare Lough within a mountainous valley. The residency was formerly used as a salmon hatchery that was built for 40 million Irish pounds in the 1980s but failed due to engineering oversights. The hatchery is now a spectacular playground for member artists to create new work at the intersection of science and art, and to bring contemporary art into a rural community. Professor Cassidy took over the old Egg Room, a 1,000-square-foot warehouse, to install an immersive audiovisual installation that engulfed the room, floor to ceiling, in sound and moving light.
