In 1898, Swiss artist Félix Vallotton exposed the private lives of the aristocracy in a series of ten woodcuttings: ‘Intimités’. Now, writer/artist duo, Paul Majek and Sam Spencer, present ‘Intimacies, after Vallotton.’
Separate to the main exhibit at the Old Fire Station, Paper Moon invites you to a special After Hours event at Trinity College to celebrate and showcase the creativity behind the exhibition.
Immerse yourself in a beautiful, hazy blue world with the premiere of the ‘Intimacies’ short film and a gorgeous presentation of photography by Niamh McBratney in response to the exhibition.
Participate in the ‘Hues of Blue’ Writing Workshop, creating the ‘After Hours’ publication - a collection of new writing, poetry and plays inspired by Majek’s blues. Or perhaps you'd rather have a go at screen-printing with artist Maya King-Dabbs.
We will also be joined by the TORCH Reimagining Performance Network for a panel discussion, joined by leading academics in the performance studies field. Following this we'll be speaking with Paul Majek and Sam Spencer on their influences, the fusion of art and theatre, and their creative process. A drinks reception and live music will welcome you upon arrival at the event.
