b. 1983, Ireland

My work uses the absurd and the ridiculous as a medium to explore certain aspects of the human psyche and examine how it manifests itself within our everyday behaviour. Same Time Tomorrow focuses specifically on the Irish psyche, and what effects the curse and blessing it is to be Irish has on the way we behave and interact with each other. The two characters enact a seemingly daily routine involving a game of ‘Headsnap’ and a strange dance.
