How To Smuggle Ireland Into Ireland
an ongoing collaboration
Tamara Nic Coscair
Jo Morrigan Black
Vivienne Dick
First performed at the Linen Hall on March 20th, 2026, this concrete poem mobilises an original Roman cement baluster from IMMA across the border, as part of an exploration initiated by visual artist Tamara Nic Coscair.
This poem borrows 22 objects from posters, articles, arts reviews, poetry, crosswords and advertisements in the Northern Ireland Political Collection, where it is now archived.
