A Halloween exhibition for the Oireachtas in Derry, consisting of a series of large canvasses depicting performances by Rhymers and placed in an international context through an accompanying collection of masks from Africa, Europe and Latin America. Descriptive panels from the Ulster Museum will be in place that explore the use of the mask in performance, ritual and art.
This is a partnership project between the artist Dara Vallely and Iontaobhas Ultach, The Ulster Musem,
and The Country Armagh as part of Oireachtas Na Gaeilge 2006.
