Transatlantic Conversation He(art)s
is an audio essay which documents long-distancecalls, voice notes and reflections recorded remotely by the two artists.
In this episode we join Aoife and Falon as they navigate their daily lives, sustaining their long-distance friendship and collaborative art practice and grappling with questions around adulthood and living conditions for artists.
Since 2021, Weaver and Ní Dhuinn have shared a collaborative practice exploring their collective interest in existentialist thought, internet culture, and material exploration. Coming from respective backgrounds in painting and media, the duo use their collaborative practice as an opportunity to integrate these shared ideas through sculpture and installation. Their practice adopts a broad range of processes including concrete casting, ceramic sculpture, meme making and going for walks.
Recent projects include multimedia installation works Shitposting From The Cryosphere, 2022, and Blowing Kisses at High Time, 2023 in addition to their publication SPFC, 2023. The duo also hosted Prancing, Drifting Foaming ‘round in the Eddy, 2024, a vision board workshop in collaboration with Muine Bheag Arts’ COMMUNE. Through the collective act of dream board making, the workshop prompts conversation and reflection on adulthood and measures of success.
