Are you a Fire Breather? Do you know one?

Solarina

Hi,

Im a photographer in Dublin and Ive been working on a series of images, called "If the Earth Breathed...", which is becoming a book and an exhibition, Im looking to include "Fire" and was hoping to find a fire breather!

my site is www.solarina.org and you can see the project here

If you can think of anyone who would be interested, or point me in the right direction I would really appreciate it!

Thanks,

Lucy

There's that Ross Stufarian guy (yeah dreadlocks, get it?) does be hanging around Grafton St. Top hat, tail coat, long red dreads. He's a magician / card sharp. He recently did an interview with the Times (sorry, can't find the link) so he'd probably like the publicity. Don't know him personally but he's on Grafton St every second day.

Damn! Ross is actually a friend so Id thought of him! Thanks a lot though,

I would love to find a female fire breather, I seem to work more with females than males in images for some reason,

Good luck with your project.

Hey Solarina,
Don't know if this will help at all but there's some female fire breathers working the odd time in Angel Lane in Limerick I've not seen them myself yet but heard a few stories back alright...my boyfriend has been doing it for years too but refuses to teach me (I use other fire stuff though devil sticks and poi and learning the hoolahoop cos there was a girl who trained with him who was diagnosed infertile from it after a year or so, he looked into it and found a few other cases of the same thing so he's just afraid of his life now its not just coincidence and refuses to be responsible for that happening to me, if anyone can contradict this please (especially if they can back it up like) let me know though cos I'm dyin to give it a go! Don't really fancy the idea of a childless future at the same time though!:p

Hi NyquistFreak,

Try these guys. They fire breath, juggle fire poi and stiltwalk. I was working with them at a halloween gig in Civic offices.
