Join artists Doireann Ni Ghrioghair and Vanessa Mitter in
an informal, friendly conversation with Emily Jane Campbell at Arthouse1.
Pimms punch, or bring a bottle!

I am a beautiful monster
who shares his secrets with the wind
What I love most in others
is myself.
It’s a compelling thing for Doireann Ni Ghrioghair and Vanessa Mitter to use Francis Picabia as their muse, he would have readily returned the compliment. The opening stanza quoted above from Picabia’s poem BACCARAT, speaks of excess and a gleeful narcissism; the two qualities Ni Ghrioghair and Mitter employ to effect in their work, pushing the notion of taste to the limit. I am a Beautiful Monster posits our Western cultural landscape as a stream of excesses and self-serving distortions.  http://www.arthouse1.co.uk/beautiful-monster.html
