Orla Barry : Portable Stones
Gent, S.M.A.K. 2005, Exhibition Catalogue. Hard Cover. Fine. Text: English / Dutch. 160 p. ; ill.; 17,5x25 cm. ' 0rla Barry (Ireland, 1969) lives and works in Brussels and Wexford. Orla Barry's work is about language, both written and spoken. Visual deconstruction and displacement of language stands central in her work; via frequently associative techniques, she researches the semantics of her mother tongue and its cultural imbedding and implications. Her work is strongly poetic and lyrical, crossing a wide variety of media, evoking non-linear narratives, undercurrents of emotion and drawing on Irish disciplines of poetry and song. She works in many forms, including video, text, sound, and photographic installations.' As new.
