Entirely hollow aside from the dark is a psycho-acoustic event within caves; ancient natural auditoriums carved into the underbelly of Ireland’s countryside. The immersive installation aims to create a visceral experience of journeying into someone’s inner dialogue by using 3-dimensional audio.

The cavern personifies the mind of a person questioning their reality, wherein an audible inner dialogue and choreographed sounds echo the character’s thoughts, memories and consciousness.

In the darkness, this psycho-acoustic work unfolds and a symphony of sounds shifts around the cave. Entirely hollow aside from the dark was initially commissioned by Fingal County Council Arts Office as part of ‘Resort Revelations’, 2016.
