HORSE RIDER AND A QUADRUPED

October 20, 2022 by Infomatique

BY MICHAEL QUANE RHA

I just learned that a quadruped is an animal which has four feet, especially an ungulate mammal.

I have always found it difficult to photograph in this display area and things did not go much better this year. There was a school tour and the young children kept walking in front of the camera but they were having much fun so I cannot really complain.

Michael Quane was born in 1962. He now lives and works in West Cork adjacent to the Atlantic Ocean. He is drawn to the human binary of passion and prudence, risk and safety, and finds something of that exposed near to the proximity of the land with the sea. He lives here where he works, with his dog, Coco, well within the range of the Atlantic’s briney-mist and most days visits the strip on either side of its tidal breadth by kayak or on foot.

SCULPTURE IN CONTEXT

Today I used a 12 year old Sony VG10E camcorder that uses a crop sensor and produces JPEG rather than RAW images which imposes many limitations. To be honest the camera worked better than I had expected.

Ester Barrett was born in Limerick in 1979. Ester, a self-taught artist, started painting full time at the age of 15, studying the techniques of the Old Masters and tuition from artists such as the late Jack Donovan.. Ester attended a bronze casting workshop in Leitrim sculpture centre in November 2010 and then focused on mould making, metal work, etc, She casts her work alongside Tim Morris Seamus Connolly. Her work is both representational and impressionistic in painting and sculpture and includes figurative pieces.
