focus on Catherine Sullivan: 

Five Economies is a two-part work whose main component, Big Hunt, is a mural-sized, five-screen video projection. The silent black and white footage, which is based on a variety of themes and sources such as popular films and traditional Irish wakes, consists of various singular scenes which have been re-choreographed and re-staged multiple times. Each re-staging utilizes different acting styles and approaches to movement and gesture.

Sullivan's work examines the ways in which the meaning of a particular scene, moment or gesture changes according to the style or mode in which it is choreographed and performed. Sullivan's interests lie less in deconstructing theatrical conventions, than in exploring the transmission of expressive or emotive narrative content, and in examining the territory between art and life.
