Asher Ó Gormáin (IE/UK/AT)

is an Irish artist working across choreographic and visual art practices as a performance maker, dramaturge and lecturer. Her work engages closely with objects and materials, drawing out their performative agency to reveal the tactile, sensuous and existential dimensions of the “ordinary”, challenging anthropocentric perspectives. She holds a BA (Hons) degree in choreography from the Dartington College of Arts (2005), a diploma in dance from SEAD – Salzburg Experimental Academy of Dance (2008) and an MA degree with honours in visual art (TransArts) from the Vienna University of Applied Art (2021). She has taught at the Angewandte Performance Lab (APL) in Vienna on a regular basis since 2021. In 2020, she established HOOD for Artist Parents. Her most recent work, “mind numbing filthy finger potholes: a glossary of the paradox of boredom”, premiered at brut Wien.
