Visit An Chéad Tine gallery on August 13th to see Marco Di Sante's digital art film Section of An Experience.
This event was gratefully funded by Kilkenny County Council and the Local Enterprise Office Kilkenny under the Night Time Economy Initiative.
"For this work, I got inspired by a walk inside the Ballyvoile Tunnel on the Green Way near Dungarvan. I had gone there to experience the feeling of darkness. The idea of the tunnel came to my mind after questioning myself about the idea of destination, whether it is final or not. In other words, everything started with the question “Where are we going?” - Marco Di Sante
Going inside lets you enter an intimate space where you can isolate yourself and get lost temporarily before getting close to the light again at the end of the tunnel. The entire project is based on two ideas: Simplification and Insecurity.
As the Homo Sapiens started the simplification process of complex concepts through drawing for communication and education purposes has progressed and it is still present nowadays. The insecurities that have always been part of our daily lives since the beginning of humanity are portrayed through the absence of light inside the tunnel.
Open until 8pm.
