feelers - Niamh Seana Meehan

feelers invites you to slow down and relax as Niamh guides you through a float meditation. Soothing sea sounds take you on a watery journey through waves and rockpools where you encounter sea creatures and plant life. feelers by Niamh Seana Meehan emerges from her practice of floating. It follows on from a collective float as part of the Grass Roots programme in 2023 in which Niamh invited members of the community to float together in the River Barrow. This episode is dedicated to Paul Meehan Niamh Seana Meehan is a visual artist based in Co. Armagh. She works across written matter, visual art and performance.Performative activities function as sites where the body gets lost, misunderstood, exhausted and anxious. The accumulation and overlapping of ideas within the practice has provoked a methodological approach of slowing down and lingering with moments of doubtfulness. Meehan has performed and exhibited both nationally and internationally.
