100 Breaths is a site-specific temporary artwork developed for Clarke Square by artist Clodagh Emoe. For almost 300 years, the central parade ground at Collins Barracks, (previously Royal Barracks) was used to perform rigorous military drills, training soldiers to move, think, and act as a single cohesive unit. By coming together at dusk for 100 Breaths can we reclaim this space of authority and invite a time of connection to unfold.
