The Raheen Prayer Blanket
Art project by Astrid Adler: Elderly where asked in 2008 what are their wishes/prayers for the world, find a symbol for it and felt it onto/into a blanket.
The harp-music playing under the film is a piece I composed. After visiting the Aran island Inish More and finding a hird part to it, I gave it the the name "Dun Aengus".
