Role: Creative Director / Designer
"Ireland 100, Celebrating a Century of Irish Arts & Culture" at The Kennedy Center, Washington D.C.
I was honoured to be approached by the Kennedy Center, the U.S. national monument to JFK, to create the identity for their 2016 festival of arts & culture.
100 years after the 1916 rising which led to Ireland's independence, the Kennedy Center celebrated Ireland's creativity through; dance, music, theatre, film and literature over the course of 3 weeks, May 16th-June 5th 2016. I was tasked with creating a versatile and distinct visual language for the festival. The logo and its variants dance and move as a performer would.
Vice President Joe Biden along with Taoiseach Enda Kenny opened proceedings. Astronaut Buzz Aldrin was among the guest speakers.
