Rua Red, South Dublin Arts Centre

Orla Barry is a hard-working, lipstick-wearing sheep farmer in rural Wexford. She is a self-confessed ovine addict. A decade in sheep, she’s still wondering what possessed her to start but yet she wouldn’t want to be anywhere else.Orla lived in Brussels for 16 years and now lives and works in South East Ireland where she runs a flock of pedigree Lleyn sheep. Her work deals with the tensions of being an artist and an eco-farmer in rural Ireland. The sheep have slowed her art career but at the same, caring for them has hugely inspired it. She escapes the studio by going to the sheep, escapes the sheep by hiding in her studio.Notes From Sheepland follows Orla, an outlier, as she floats between these worlds. It reflects upon the primal, poetic and unpredictable bond she has with the natural world. This screening forms part of Rua Red's Learning and Engagement programe for Orla Barry's exhibition The Collie, The Cheviot &amp; the Crouched Skeleton, which runs from July 10th - September 26th in Rua Red Gallery.
