Lauren Bickerdike’s work doesn’t shout. It reverberates.

Based in Limerick, Ireland, Lauren is a multimedia artist working across photography, sound, and installation. Her work explores how environments — social, political, ecological — leave echoes in the human body.

“I’m interested in the residue. What remains. The sounds that linger after a place has been left.”

Gita has been dancing since before she could walk or talk. She has discovered that this is something she doesn’t want to live without. The experience of “IT” is more than just joy for her. It is vitality. It is poetry in motion.
We are blown away by her energy and excited to have her visiting our residence for the evening.
