Comhla bhreac – publication
Growing up learning about the history and folklore surrounding Irish landscapes, I found it fascinating how these different worlds co-exist, how we can stand in a space and admire it for what it is, but also how we can open ourselves up to feeling a presence within the land.
This self-bound photobook is the final outcome for my large landscape project that was developed over the eight months of my final year at GSA.
This outcome allowed me to sequence my selected images to create a flowing rhythmic experience for viewers, experiment with design elements and consider materiality and text. This sixty-eight-page publication shares a visual exploration of these popular and lesser-known locations around Ireland, including the Irish and English translations for each location name, exploring the idea of what details are strengthened once we recognise the language of the land.
