BOATYARD – An Clos mBad

The art of Irish boatbuilding embodies resilience, defiance and survival. The Boatyard: An Clos mBad is Tilby’s shrine to the unknown fishermen and craftsmen who lived their lives by the sea. First exhibited at Bantry House, Bantry Bay, West Cork July 2018, then Ballymaloe 2019, the exhibition is now at the Belmont Demesne at Greystones, Dublin.
The installation includes a 100-year-old sail, a soundscape – a collaboration with Steve Jones & Irish poet Pat Waters, and limited edition art prints, available to order.
