Neil Hannon and Cathy Davey wrote the score music for
Agnes Conway’s ‘Lost Sailors’ exhibition. Held at the National Maritime Museum of Ireland in Dun Laoghaire, the exhibition ran from 6th to 31st July 2012 (opening on 5th July). It was previously shown at the Orangery in Marlay Park, Dublin, from 11th to 18th September 2011, but we ignore if the accompanying music was already present at the time.
The display consists of monuments that tell the stories of the Lost Sailors with prints of their portraits, and a diary describing the finding of the sailors’ relics and the making of the work associated with them.
