Dance Ireland Member Sobhán Ní Dhuinnín talks about how she came into dance, her interactions and influences and introducing her dad to her world of movement. 

Sobhán Ní Dhuinnín is a dance artist based in Cork, Ireland.  Her primary focus is on place-based and site-specific work manifesting in film and live performance. She seeks to question how the human body engages with the Earth in a way that gives agency to both.
