About the Piece
”I went back to the early 19th century and reflected that vintage in the central character, how one may have looked back then when preparing to take the plunge into the capital's river. The city buildings in the background are a mixture of old and modern and represent a tradition throughout the times. The colour layers are purposely offset embracing the screen print medium. The mermaid tattoo contains the initials R & K…a secret dedication to someone special.”

About the Piece
”This piece was inspired by the the spirit of an article by an anonymous writer titled ‘Story of the Liffey Swim - (By One of the Competitors)’ printed in the Evening Telegraph in 24 July 1920, just days after the inaugural Liffey Swim.

"Research is also at the heart of a lot of my work. I really enjoy discovering historical accounts, especially for the authenticity of detail in the observations, the antiquated turn of phrase and the feel of a bygone era. This article dealt with everything from the fear of not finishing the race, to the multitude who came to view it ‘on foot and on all kinds of vehicles’, right down to the analysis of the Liffey water, to see if it was fit enough for swimming in!

"I like to weave both type and image together in my work. I collect and sample old letterpress fonts, particularly those that have managed to escape digitisation. I was also keen on making sure that details like the tram advertisements were of the time and that the swim suits of the era were accurate.

"The writer of this article himself wasn’t too far off the mark when he predicted that ‘... the Liffey swims of the future will be looked forward to with intense interest by the people of Dublin.’ “

'Tile' by Orla Reynolds

Single colour hand-pulled screen print.
297 x 420mm / on 300gsm Munken Pure paper. Edition of 100, signed and numbered by the artist.

About the Project
Inspired by a visit to Eileen Gray’s villa E-1027, each print in this series by designer Orla Reynolds depicts an element of the villa.

"After many years of wanting to visit, I finally had the opportunity in August 2017. It was a treasured experience. I wandered around the villa with the exceptional tour guide and absorbed the thoughtfulness of each space and object and flow to the house. Imagining Eileen there.

"Over the following week, unexpectedly, I spent my time interpreting parts of the villa on canvas with acrylic. I created 5 paintings based on different elements of the villa. They have become some of my proudest work."

'You must arrive with calm, elegance and silence or Eileen won’t let you enter.' 

Using silkscreen printing, the original paintings have been transformed into prints.
