Grattan Hill Lady

In a little nook off Grattan Hill is a beautiful portrait of what looks to be a young African woman. There's a name tagged next to the woman, so I'm guessing that's the artist. It looks like DSOK, but I could be wrong....

These photos were taken by me in August 2012.

Blue Bird Fly

Just a quick post today. This is a nice, simple, colourful stencil near the North Cathedral.

I took this photo in September 2012.

Work at the Camden Palace Hotel - Part 2

To follow on from my previous post about good street art around the Camden Palace Hotel, I'll share photos of two pieces around the back of the place on Pine Street.

All these photos were taken by me in July 2012, and so far the pieces are still there!

They are side by side and are really striking, brilliantly done.



The piece on the left, the skull, is a collaborative work done by Psychonautes and Dusto. Psychonautes has the work posted on his Flickr page: http://www.flickr.com/photos/psychonautes/7385882728/







The piece on the right is a colourful martial arts dude by OneR. He has the piece posted on his Flickr page and there it's called "AfroSamurai": http://www.flickr.com/photos/44190989@N02/7605996762/in/photostream)

Speaking of Skulls....

I have a few minutes left, so I'll make a bonus posting.

Since I've been talking about Psychonautes and skulls in the last few posts, I thought I'd keep on that theme one more time and share a skull sticker by him that has been put up all around the city.

This particular example was in the Pine Street area. The photo was taken by me in September 2012.

 

Dark Thoughts

Following on from my last post, I thought I'd share some photos of the "Dark Thoughts" piece I mentioned there. It was located on a wall at Magic's Tattoo Studio on Robert Street, off Oliver Plunkett Street, in Cork.

This was a collaborative work between Psychonautes and another artist called Psyn RWK from New York.

The piece is posted on Psychonautes' Flickr page:

These photos were taken by me in September 2012. "Dark Thoughts" has since been painted over.
