A beautifully evocative exhibition at the National Gallery of Ireland: 𝘔𝘪𝘭𝘥𝘳𝘦𝘥 𝘈𝘯𝘯𝘦 𝘉𝘶𝘵𝘭𝘦𝘳: 𝘈𝘵 𝘏𝘰𝘮𝘦 𝘪𝘯 𝘕𝘢𝘵𝘶𝘳𝘦.

I was first enthralled by the artist's sumptuous work as a VSO at Butler Gallery, and I'm glad to see this celebration of her significant contribution to Irish art.

Closes 5th Jan. '25!

On Tuesday, I so enjoyed the (sold-out) Inaugural Lecture by Professor Christine Casey (TCD), entitled ‘The wisdom of hands: craft practice in architecture.'

It was particularly insightful to hear about a bottom-up approach in relation to making and meaning in eighteenth-century architecture.

It was an absolute joy to represent the Irish Antiquities Division and discuss all things Insular art at the National Museum of Ireland - Archaeology's 𝘚𝘤𝘪𝘦𝘯𝘤𝘦 𝘞𝘦𝘦𝘬 𝘖𝘱𝘦𝘯 𝘋𝘢𝘺: 𝘐𝘯𝘷𝘦𝘴𝘵𝘪𝘨𝘢𝘵𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘈𝘳𝘵𝘦𝘧𝘢𝘤𝘵𝘴 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘔𝘢𝘯𝘶𝘴𝘤𝘳𝘪𝘱𝘵𝘴 𝘰𝘧 𝘔𝘦𝘥𝘪𝘦𝘷𝘢𝘭 𝘐𝘳𝘦𝘭𝘢𝘯𝘥. Below are replicas from Education NMI's handling collection ~

Looking forward to delving into Timothy O'Neill's latest work, 𝘛𝘩𝘦 𝘐𝘳𝘪𝘴𝘩 𝘢𝘳𝘵 𝘰𝘧 𝘤𝘢𝘭𝘭𝘪𝘨𝘳𝘢𝘱𝘩𝘺: 𝘢 𝘴𝘵𝘦𝘱-𝘣𝘺-𝘴𝘵𝘦𝘱 𝘨𝘶𝘪𝘥𝘦 🪶

While providing insights into the work of early medieval scribes, it also equips the reader with the knowledge to practise Insular scripts - time to brush up on my Insular majuscule!
