SUMMARY:Songs and wild teas - Workshop with Siobhán Kavanagh
DESCRIPTION:Singer and artist Siobhán Kavanagh welcomes you to a discussion\nabout the joy of wild food and how she sources inspiration from wild\nplants and flowers for songs. Come sample\, taste and curiously\nexplore a selection of wild foraged tea. Wild food and knowledge is\npresent in traditional/folk song and for this workshop – participants are\ninvited to listen\, learn and share song in a safe and welcoming\nenvironment. \nArtist Biography:\nSiobhán Kavanagh is a vocal artist\, composer and group facilitator\nwho works with sampled sound\, song\, performance art\, installation\nand visual storytelling. Siobhán’s work is deeply rooted in themes of\nurban ecology\, nature and community; writing songs and music\ninspired by stories of social movements and peoples history.\nSiobhán’s current project ‘Terrestrial Sounds’ connects with stories\nfrom community garden members who reclaim and rewild green\nspace in Dublin City. Through a portable compost bin sound structure\, \nSiobhán broadcasts soundscape compositions that weave together\nacoustic ecologies\, sound bites from interviews and live song.\nAs a group facilitator. Siobhán hosts workshops that explore\ntraditional/folk song\, foraging\, vocal improvisation and various themes\nsuch as ‘Songs of Birds and Nature’ Boyle Arts Festival 2026/IMMA\nHarvest Festival 2025 and ‘Songs of Land & Resistance’ Cashel Arts\nFest 2022. ‘Song of Home’ is an audio/visual work produced with\nartist Alisha Doody and members of LGBT+ Choir exploring themes of\n‘home’. In 2025\, Siobhán was awarded artist in residence at the\nGuesthouse Project\, Cork producing a new work titled ‘Sorrow Eaters’\n– an indoor foraging workshop/performance inviting participants to\nexplore\, taste\, smell wild food and participate in a ritual song\nperformance.\nSiobhán is an interdisciplinary performer working with musicians and\nvisual artists across disciplines\, with a focused approach to\nmaintaining long term collaborations. Examples of this include:\ncomposing\, recording and performing traditional song for three major\nartworks by Deirdre O’ Mahony that comment on the current\necological crises impact on farmers\, food sustainability and\nproduction. These include: ‘Song of the Farmer and Dung Beetle’\n(Eco Show Boat and Kunstverien Aughrim 2023); ‘The Quickening’\n(Douglas Hyde Gallery 2024) and work in progress ‘Border Song’\n2026.
