As a recipient of the recent graduate residency award, Michael Dignam will show a body of work in The Joinery gallery space. The solo show is the second exhibition held as part of The Joinery Graduate Residency 2013. Dignam’s practice uses rhythmic patterns and formal juxtapositions to create a unique social narrative. Using subtle and unfamiliar combinations of common material, Dignam often presents riddle-like work, allowing the viewer space to decipher it. “Michael Dignam’s compelling performative video installation… features individuals exercising quirky personal, expressive skills in fairly brutalist urban, architectonic spaces.” Aidan Dunne, The Irish Times, June 2013 ________________________________________ Everything Shook / ¡NO! / Aint Saint John Friday 6th December 8PM, €8 Everything Shook Everything Shook are a three piece band from Dublin, featuring dancers Jessica Kennedy, Áine Stapleton (You Can Call Me Frances) and Robyn Bromfield (Catscars).

His music has been described as soft, understated songs delivered with breathy vocals and clear piano melodies, sometimes incorporating electronic elements and samples. He draws influence from a broad range of sources, wishing to meld the craft of songwriters such as Bill Callahan, Kurt Wagner and Bill Fay with a romantic piano style. breakingtunes/aintsaintjohn _______________________________________ One Night Stands - Michael Harding Friday 13th December 7PM Sharp, €5 Wine and tapas €5 One Night Stands is a short series of one-off performances at the Joinery by individual theatre-makers.

Staring at Lakes is a beautifully written book in which he talks with openness and honesty about his journey through life, leaving the priesthood, falling in love, being overwhelmed by depression and ultimately how he found a way out of the dark by accepting the fragility of love and the importance of now. ________________________________________ Six-Month Visual Art Programming Residency The Joinery invites applicants for a six-month visual art programming residency.
