Cultural Events - February to June 2010 - University of Ulster

‘My work deals with the boundaries between art and
craft. Its brush with both print and stitch could be
viewed as subversive decoration yet not embellishment.
It is a hybrid form of all of these and its plurality is its
strength. I am an obsessive collector of printed material;
considering myself to be a textile anthropologist,
continually sourcing and archiving each find.’

A pupil of Veronica Dunne, Marcella has recently completed a
postgraduate diploma at the Royal Irish Academy of Music, Dublin.
Her professional operatic debut came in 2009 (Serafina in Donizetti’s Il
campanello with Opera Fringe), and since then she has toured Northern
Italy singing Norina (Donizetti, Don Pasquale) under Maestro Angelo
Guaragna. Also a recent graduate of the RIAM, Deborah Henry has won
numerous prizes in national competitions, including Dublin’s Feis Ceoil,
and was the 2008 recipient of the prestigious Lucien and Maura Teissier
Scholarship for Pianists. Marcella and Deborah will perform a selection
of songs inspired by Venice including pieces by Mendelssohn, Hahn,
Head and Massenet.
