Winter Sun is a moving-image work by Cork artist Elinor O’Donovan.

The work is a preserved piece of a warm Cork summer, saved for the months when it is most needed. Taking as its inspiration the iconic view from the top of Patrick’s Hill at Bells Field, the video work is a looping film depicting Corkonians sharing a moment of togetherness, connected by their mutual appreciation for a setting summer sun.

“In 1750, when the Triskel Christchurch building was just twenty years old, Cork painter John Butts depicted the growing city of Cork in his painting View of Cork from Audley Place. The painting, which is part of the collection of Cork Crawford Art Gallery, depicts two different viewpoints of the city which the artist seamlessly blended into one panorama. The pink-ish tint to the sky suggests the setting is early evening, and in the foreground two men and a dog look out over the north side of the city. The vista depicted in Butts’ painting is a familiar sight for many Corkonians,
