2024 | Ireland | 85' | Feature Documentary Film
Ag Lorg Hy-Brasil ruminates on an ancient, mythical island off the Connemara coast and explores how it inspired Ireland’s national pavilion at the Venice Architecture Biennale 2023.
The exhibition, In Search of Hy-Brasil, was curated by a team of five architects, Peter Carroll, Peter Cody, Elizabeth Hatz, Mary Laheen, and Joseph Mackey. The project examines the relationship between the islands of Ireland and their natural environment and puts our islands’ diverse communities, culture, and experiences right at the centre of the discourse surrounding our shared future.
Architecture at the Edge are delighted to present an exclusive screening as part of a supporting programme of cultural events organised around the content of the installation.
This special event includes a sneak peek at the eagerly awaited film documenting the making of ‘In search of Hy-Brasil’, with the creative team in attendance.
The special screening will take place on Sunday 22nd September, starting at 8:00pm, in the Town Hall Theatre.
