Artist's Talk on 'Skelligs - From Sea To Summit' at Origin Gallery, Dublin

Dublin's galleries took over the city during the recent Dublin's Gallery Weekend.  Thirty galleries hosted sixty visual arts events, including show openings, curator talks and walking tours.  Donagh Carey gave an Artist's Talk on Saturday afternoon at Origin Gallery, Fitzwilliam Street about his art exhibition inspired by his sojourns to the Skellig Islands.  Telling stories from his initial arrival on Skellig Michael in treacherous weather conditions, to the unimaginable hardship for the monks living in the 6th Century Hermitage and how he responds to these experiences in his paintings.
