STEVE DOODY - HEXAGON - COULD BE IT STEEL



On the North strand there is a little park that is never open and it is next to the Marino College Of Further Education but I am not sure if has any connection with the college.

What is interesting about the park is that it features the North Strand Air Raid Memorial.

A few days ago I was passing buy and I noticed something that was new to the park and what was really interesting was that I had seen it somewhere before. After a day or two I realised that I had first seen it in the Botanic Gardens a few years ago.

It did not take me long to discovered that I photographed this metal piece of art in 2014 when it featured in the Sculpture In Context exhibition in the Botanic Gardens. It won an award back then:

Recipients of the 2014 Awards
4 Sculpture in Context Awards for large outdoor works of distinction in any medium were awarded this year, recipients were:

In April 2017 it was also included in an exhibition at Oldbridge Estate - 'Sculpture in Context’ at The Battle of the Boyne.
