Spoken Word: Hope

Upcoming Irish spoken word artist and comedian, Kevin Pigott loves to explore the power of words (and humour in his comedy) to convey the importance of human connection and healing along with simply recognising the potency of our words when it comes to their ability to change the lives of the people around us.

There is no way to happiness, happiness is the way. If we said this 100 times to ourselves and truly understood it, our lives can fundamentally change.

In 2019 Kevin ran the Dublin branch of the Global eye context experiment whereby we had over 150 people spend 1 minute sharing eye contact with a stranger. The purpose of the experiment was to rebuild a sense of human connection in an ever increasing technological world. The event was a success and was designed to remind the people of Ireland and Dublin that there is love, kindness and connection in this place we call home. You just have to open your mind and eyes to see it.

More of his spoken word poems can be found on YouTube under Kevin Pigott poems.
