The Yellow Mountain, a performative video celebrates youth and vitality. In this four-minute video the performers proclaim youth’s reign eternal.

Embodied in an out-sized yellow jumper, the performers sit with heads protruding lip-synching to the Alleluia chorus from Handel’s Messiah. Up ending Beckett’s Happy Days these performers are being born into life with abundant energy and joy.

The Yellow Mountain was commissioned by The Youth Arts Advisory Committee and West Cork Arts Centre and supported by an Arts Council Commission Award.
