About this event

Join Hugh Lane Gallery for an evening talk, as part of a series of talks in tandem with the exhibition Ailbhe Ní Bhriain: The Dream Pool Intervals; programmed with curator Sara Muthi.

Responding to the spectre of loss and destruction in Ailbhe Ní Bhriain’s, Dream Pool Intervals (2025), Roy’s talk draws into its orbit theories of narratology, neuroqueerness, interpersonal communication and a ‘sociology of associations’ and presents these ideas alongside extracts from their recent body of work with radio communications technologies, to make an artist’s case for the recuperative social value of what we might call an autism poetics.

Free, book in advance or come on the day, subject to availability.
