From bedtime stories to legends, tragedies, chronicles and rumours, we all love a good story. They make us laugh and cry, they teach us lessons and morals, sometimes even giving us insights and new ways of seeing.Whatever their purpose they are everywhere we go. Spoken out of mouths, written in books, lying dormant in our imaginations. Inspired by the Seanchaí, a respected Irish storyteller and bearer of folklore, Andrew Moynihan creates a new ancient tale. Handful of Stew is Moynihan’s transformation of the story into a visual experience that surrounds the viewer.
