Speaking Into Being
Glasgow Project Room, July 2024
Speaking Into Being was a collaboration between Niamh Moloney and Tinja Ruusuvuori-- a walking experiment spanning two countries over four years.
Through walking and describing our surroundings over the phone, we realised that a “third space” was generated - a tangible sense of the dynamic between us, existing independently of us, almost as if it were a separate entity. We came to recognise this space as consistently present, a place that facilitates the shared act of imagining.
The exhibition includes a video work, an audio offering to the River Clyde, and a collaboratively written text “Clywwd / Clut / Clutoida / Clota / The Clyde: She Listens”.
