Oh - Infamy - we eat electric light
In Partnership with Arts and Disability Ireland
A set. A stage. A basement. A party.
Oh - Infamy - we eat electric light is an exhibition at the Oonagh Young Gallery, James Joyce Street, by Emma Wolf Haugh and Iarlaith Ni Fheorais that is entangled with and disobedient to Circe, Episode 15 of James Joyce’s Ulysses. A hallucinatory trip through the night time streets, we encounter otherworldly scenes of kink, justice, gender swapping, animism, and the troubling, unearthed through drag, music, and text.
Mourning the lost magic of the night, Oh Infamy - we eat electric light takes place on the site of Monto, Dublin’s sex work and nightlife district of old. The place where Bloom roves in hallucinatory states through Circe, where madams reigned and where we evoke phantoms of the past stomping demands for filthier futures. Oh Infamy! is a celebratory haunting of dirty auld Dublin and of Circe; an ode to the potential energies housed in ruin.
Free admission. No booking necessary.
