Ruth Clinton and Niamh Moriarty

A Collection of Disarticulated Bones is an ongoing research platform and artistic endeavour by Ruth Clinton and Niamh Moriarty, developed through fieldwork and active questioning of cultural identity in Ireland, Spain and the United States over the last year.

Their aim is an ambitious one - to unpick the various foundation myths of the Global North - institutional, pop cultural and embodied. In each context Clinton and Moriarty keep asking how stories and narratives are shaped and told, interpreted and circulated. Their initial findings point to the vital role of the individual to bear witness to history, no matter how offbeat or bizarre it might initially be seen as.

A collection of new videos, photographs and objects are developed by a commissioning initiative involving the University of Galway and Galway City Museum, Solas Nua in Washington DC, and Virginia Tech Institute of Creativity, Arts and Technology.
