ARTIST’S TALK (refreshments)
Saturday 6 September 2025
6pm – 8pm

Exhibition of large-scale mixed-media works (oil and acrylic on canvas) created in response to recent personal experiences. The series explores themes of space, distance, and the edge of perception – the vanishing point, or the point of no return.

Throughout the making process, I reflected on how physical and emotional boundaries shift and evolve. Each work became an exploration of transition and transformation, capturing moments where divisions dissolve.

ÄRES

Circolo artistico e cultural di Ortisei

Piazza S. Antonio, 102, 39046 Ortisei BZ, Italy


I’ll be participating again in ÄRES (EPL – Art por I Ladins), an exhibition of the work of fifteen women associated with the ladino-speaking area of Val Badia (BZ) in Italy.

I’ll be showing again my video work Metamorphosis, as well my most recent climate change video piece SILT which was shown last at the Old Operating Theatre Museum and Herb Garret.

SILT uses a range of materials in its creation including silt, sand and algae, as well as man-made and organic objects retrieved from the foreshore of the Thames at low tide. Coming from the Dolomite region of Northern Italy, I’m particularly interested in natural habitats in urban settings and how we relate to these, in particular the ever-changing, tidal aspect of the Thames. The film also deals with unexpected drought and flooding as a result of changing seasonal cycles.

The exhibition is sponsored by EPL – Ert por i Ladins ODV and Raiffeisen.

The soundtrack for the video was created by musician and composer Jonathan Lambert @jonathanlambert18.

The video works, each comprised of a series of time-lapse sequences, are a reflection on our impact on the Thames, including chemical and pharmaceutical discharge into the river leading to, among other things, antibiotic-resistant bacteria. The work is intended to encourage debate on the effects of our actions on the natural balance and how we can re-establish and maintain healthy eco-systems?

The soundtrack for the videos was created by Jonathan Lambert.

Tidal Traces draws attention to issues relating to the River Thames through a series of free-hanging installations, time-lapse video and (drop-in family) workshop.

Irma Irsara continues her exploration of environmental issues, looking at material that finds its way into the Thames through natural phenomena and human activity, and the impact on the health of the river’s eco-system and the surrounding population.

She uses debris recovered from the foreshore to create impressions using cyanography, chromatography and micrography to represent both the visible and the invisible, in particular micro fibre plastic and pharmaceutical contaminants.

My first three films relating to the environment – Monster Soup, Desert Rose and Metamorphosis – will be among other films shown throughout the day at The Spool sunken amphitheatre as part of In a field by a Bridge, organised by Team London Bridge. The soundscapes for all of the videos were created by Jonathan Lambert.

The festival celebrates everything that Potters Fields Park and the London Bridge neighbourhood have to offer as a leading environmentally- focused business district, highlighting the transition to a carbon neutral economy,  low impact  living and healthy lifestyles. The impact of this festival on the local community, is aimed to create positive social and economic longevity far beyond this launch weekend.

ÄRES

14 artistes dla Val Badia é arjignades y s’inviëia

Ostaria Dessot, Dlijia Vedla, La Val, Italy

I will be participating in äres, a exhibition of the work of fourteen women associated with the ladino-speaking area of Val Badia (BZ) in Italy.

It’s very significant for me to return to my roots to show my climate-change film Metamorphosis in this special venue, which is less than a kilometer from my family home in the Dolomites. The region has seen significant events in recent years due to climate change, including the collapse of the Marmalada glacier in 2022 or Storm Vaia in 2018 which caused massive damage to the mountain ecosystem, knocking down about eight million cubic metres of timber,

The exhibition is sponsored by EPL – Ert por i Ladins ODV as well as Raiffeisen, Provinia Autonoma di Bolzano and Hotel Pider.

The soundtrack for the video was created by musician and composer Jonathan Lambert.

This one day event will start with a lunchtime screening of the film River Net after which Irma will talk about the project and take questions from the audience.
Throughout the day, the 15 minute film will continue to run on a loop, and Irma will be available to engage and discuss with the public on an informal basis.
There will be a small number of her fibre art pieces on show as well as other resources.
