Vivienne Griffin with Úna Monaghan
Artist Vivienne Griffin presents a harp based, experimental live performance work with Northern Irish musician, Úna Monaghan for Assembly 2024.
In this one-off performance Griffin looks to the aural traditions of early Irish harpists and builds on the artist’s practice in experimental score composition and musical collaboration.
The duo bring together harp, electronic distortion, motors, and programming software Max MSP to produce a work of sonic polarisation; melody competing with noise, meditative repetition with collapse of order.
