A new art exhibition documenting life on the Blasket Islands opens in Tralee this evening.
‘On the Edge and In-Between’ is a new exhibition by artist James Hayes, which is inspired by the six months he spent living and working as a caretaker of the Great Blasket Island.
The exhibition presents a compelling body of artwork, with Hayes bringing a contemporary perspective to one of Ireland’s most iconic landscapes.
