ISLAND

Iniskeagh North, situated off the Mullett Peninsula, North Mayo Coast, Ireland. The North Island  along with the South Island were abandoned after significant numbers of fisherman were drowned in the Storm of October 27th, 1927. The self supporting lifestyle of the Islanders became no longer viable and the last inhabitants were evacuated from the islands in 1932 .Traces of the lives lived, former homes and buildings are now subject to time and the North Atlantic storms. Working title of this body of work ” ISLAND ” , which records the vistas  through doors and windows of the now long departed occupants homes, the boundary wall of fields under cultivation. Green roads . Their lives now marked by stones, the remnants of the built environment from the times of the last settlement and from previous early Christian, Pre-Christian and Earlier Settlements. The stones once in place being brought from various locations were repeatedly repurposed.
