Moira Tierney "ARE WE THERE YET?"
Microscope Gallery
This event has ended.
Brooklyn based filmmaker Moira Tierney presents “Are We There Yet” a program of her new & recent films shot on mostly on16mm, but also on Super8 and DV. Born in Dublin, Tierney’s works often deal with the political and social barriers that try to divide us and on acts of resistance to oppression. Participating in artists workshop and screening films around the world, Tierney shoots much of her footage on the road. The title film of the program was filmed at a children’s workshop in the Northern Ireland border towns of Leitrim & Fermanagh where Tierney finds in the thick mist a metaphor for the calming down of former high tensions in the area. The program also takes us to Mexico City, Brooklyn, Mauritania and the Bronx. Tierney also has a sound installation & photos on view as part of our current “What Tornado” exhibit that runs thru 2.27.
