ROAM is a project which explores themes of loss from the time of the pandemic. We are working with young people age 10-12 and elders in communities across the Northside of Cork City.
With girls from 6th class, we have been reflecting on the years between the covid pandemic lockdowns and now – 5 turns of the spiral, remembering what was lost and what was found during that time. Using botanical inks harvested from the Glen and other home made inks we experimented with the materials to see how they changed with different modifiers, just seeing what happens, allowing them to work their magic, messy and exciting at the same time.
