🎥 RUARUM Film Club Presents: Notes From Sheepland (2024), directed by Cara Holmes 🎥
Join us Thurs 30 July for a screening as part of Rua Red's Learning and Engagement programe for Orla Barry's exhibition The Collie, The Cheviot & the Crouched Skeleton, launching 10 July—26 Sept.
Orla Barry is a hard-working, lipstick-wearing sheep farmer in rural Wexford. Her work deals with the tensions of being an artist and an eco-farmer in rural Ireland. The sheep have slowed her art career but at the same, caring for them has hugely inspired it. She escapes the studio by going to the sheep, escapes the sheep by hiding in her studio.
Notes From Sheepland follows Orla, an outlier, as she floats between these worlds. It reflects upon the primal, poetic and unpredictable bond she has with the natural world.
