From Moving Statues to Marriage Equality

Four of my sculpture pieces feature at present in the Bloom In The Park garden festival. Three pieces together help tell the story of the change in Irish society from ‘Moving Statues to Marriage Equality’.

What a delightful surprise when ‘the real‘ Cormac and Richard arrived at Bloom to view the sculpture of them in the Woodies Garden designed by Brian Burke, Super Garden winner. Cormac Gollogy and Richard Dowling, thank you.

  1. Hi
    I would love to see your garden if you are showing it anytime. My neighbour Jackie was with you yesterday and she was totally in awe of it.
    Kindest regards
