Outdoor Sculpture |
Six double ring aluminium units. Fixed between the rings of each unit are images with coloured highway reflective sheeting. As viewers pass by the installation, seventy-five metres in length, the rings appear to move or shift in relationship to each other. These shifts create a cinematic unfolding of the imagery.The rings refer to the circular structure of earthworks, crop marks and Norman architecture found throughout the area. The shape and presence of the coloured imagery is derived from the area roadways as described on Ordnance Survey Map 36. Further incorporation of symbols include the profile of pottery shards found during the road’s excavation as well as other archaeological findings. Together these images give the impression of early Celtic script. Associated Scheme: N25 Rathsillagh to Harristown Road Realignment Scheme |

Angels of the Sea: The Artist designed and hand-printed each unique piece of fabric and used symbols to depict the underwater scene. This sumptuous wall-hanging in rich textiles with its shoal of angels/mermaids was created to honour the lives of those lost at sea. Inspiration for the painting ‘Keepers of the Light’ comes from the strong elemental forces to which the Hook Peninsula is exposed. The painting in four panels depicts the elements of earth, fire, water and air.Both pieces are located in Hook Lighthouse.Associated Scheme: Fethard-on-Sea Housing Scheme |
