Disco on a Farm

By  Naomi Heath 2016

This work takes place as a cattle feeder sculpture disco on a small island off the west coast of Wales.

Two artists were present: myself and an Irish artist. We worked directly with the site, moving, listening, and responding through sound and light. Irish radio crackled through the space as we danced, shaping a shared rhythm between broadcast, body, and landscape.

The island lighthouse continued its slow rotation, its light cutting through a deep blue silence that settled across the water and land. At one point, a local farmer passed overhead, paragliding across the scene, briefly entering and leaving the frame of the work.

The scent of the sea carried through the air, constant and close, shifting with wind and tide. We played with light sources in the dark, using them as tools of attention and interruption within the landscape.

The work sits between sculpture, performance, and site-based intervention, shaped by the conditions of the island and the presence of those moving through it.
