drawings from Estonia

During my residency in Moks, Centre for art and social practice, Mooste, Estonia this year I did some drawings.

The bridle broke

Nervous Around Horses proved to be a very challenging piece to install. The Vets office had some difficulties with it - the challenges of showing work in a public space takes all parties involved to be open to it. However, miscommunications led to the work being lost in the politics. Im grateful however to the Pets shop for hosting it with such welcome.

Liquid -Vedelik come to Ennistymon

The Estonian based art group came to Ennistymon this August for a week to partake in the Power of Local, a cultural festival.

"Pink Wall, Parliment Street, Ennistymon" was the final intervention orchestrated by myself with everyone present invited to make a huge map of the art links, naming the places we are all linked to through our art projects.

Throughout the weekend the shared sense of creativity buzzed and filled our hearts. I showed my performance piece on video "Raadi airport" that was made in Tartu, 2010.



Michael Walsh created an installation in a disused shop, using

100 empty flour bags that he had previously designed for a flour company in Estonia.
