The Atlantic washed shores of our island nation has witnessed over the passing centuries many storms both cultural, political and natural.

The word vessel meaning carrier or objects that hold, represents my theme of research through the monastic sites, lichen covered burial grounds and secretive places that capture my attention as time is eroding their stories.

These places of both ancient and 20th century Ireland inspire in me a world of imagery both spiritual and ghostly, thus bringing together a collection of work that is reflecting this.
