Join us this November for a unique dance performance titled Moving Signatures, featuring participants from CoisCéim Broadreach in response to the museum’s Permanent Collection exhibition IMMA Collection: Art As Agency and the historical site of the Royal Hospital Kilmainham. Featuring 19 participants, audience members are invited to follow the dance in a promenade-style experience through IMMA’s communal and transitory spaces, exploring how movement activates the museum’s social and spatial architecture. 

This site-responsive performance is guided by choreographer and filmmaker Jonathan Mitchell and is the culmination of a collaborative, movement-based slow-art project in collaboration with the IMMA Horizons programme. Over the past four months, participants have explored and recorded their unique movement signatures in response to selected artworks, collectively shaping a new choreography.

Moving Signatures will take place on Sunday, 16 November, with performances scheduled for 12:15pm, 1pm and 1:45pm.
