Explore the culture of the area of Ringsend through this exhibition based around a hand-made artist's book.
This exhibition showcases artist Susan Leen’s fine art printed book, Rinn Aun – The Place of the Tide, and the process of its design and creation. The book examines the neighbourhood of Ringsend and its relationship with its maritime environment. Leen’s project uses haiku and linocut illustrations to portray the stories and memories of local inhabitants and the present-day situation of the bay area, collected through weeks of interviews. The book is printed letterpress on the National Print Museum’s Vandercook No. 4 and bound using traditional techniques.
The exhibition launched for Irish Design Week supported by the Design & Crafts Council of Ireland.
