WIDEAWAKE
Orla BarryLanguage, in written as well as in spoken form, constitutes the essence of Orla Barry’s work. She ties words into phrases, kneads sentences into paragraphs, ending up with a visual as well as verbal unity, an apparently non-structured stream-of-consciousness with an open and poetical structure.

The models fade into each other intersecting reflections of great European landscapes, leaving the way to an eerie underwater world...
BOUWEN IN BELGIË
