I Create Online

The Irish Chamber Orchestra is back with another dynamic collaborative mini-series. Partnerships, diversity, and one-offs are at the heart of ICO's successful I Create Online series which took social media by storm during lockdown. A play on Irish Chamber Orchestra (ICO), this second series of I Create Online showcases more creative disciplines including Mime; Marine Film Production; Illustration and Print
inspired by music and each expression is accompanied by members of the Irish Chamber Orchestra. These three shorts will stimulate the senses, generating more unforgettable ICO experiences. These imaginative episodes will broadcast monthly online from February to April.

Episode 3

ETERNAL BLOOMS, is a four-way partnership with Illustrator and Printmaker Eva Byrne, ICO Leader Katherine Hunka, Guitarist Jimmy Smyth and Film Editor, Dominik Kosicki. Eva’s inspiration for ETERNAL BLOOMS comes from the transience of wildflowers, short-lived when plucked by her daughter Polly. Eva creates this picture in her artwork to encapsulate this moment for always for her daughter. The music stimulus came from the emotive old folksong The Unquiet Grave arranged and performed by Violinist Katherine Hunka and Guitarist Jimmy Smyth. The imagery is simple, and the melody resembles a lullaby, creating the impression of a natural cycle, every-present and compelling. The beautiful ETERNAL BLOOMS broadcasts on Thursday 29 April.
