Centred around the community and landscape of the darkest inhabited place in Ireland, 'Fields of Darkness' explores diverse physical and metaphorical perspectives on darkness, weaving together stories from archaeology, spirituality, astronomy, music, and blindness. An imaginative tapestry of human and non-human experiences unfold across millions of years, from the first life stepping on land to the environmental effects of light pollution.
