‘Red Wedding’ was a 90 minute solo performance work by Aine Phillips, preceded by a four hour installation, structured on a ceremonial format incorporating vivid imagery and performance gestures, enactment and evocation using the spoken word, recorded sound compositions and cinematic projection.

‘Red Wedding’ was based on religious ceremony and Catholic Marriage using the stages of courtship, formal union, consummation and relationship to create the schematic upon which a multi media and live art work was built. Universal themes of desire, passion and connection in love with all its contradictions were explored.
