Lorna is a member of the Blackwater Valley Makers with her work on permanent display. She has spent the last two years working on this exciting project.
Lorna studied art and photography in Glasgow, Scotland where she was born. She moved to Conna eighteen years ago and quickly felt at home and welcome in Ireland. She has exhibited her work here many times over the years to some critical success. This will be her fourth solo exhibition.
“I brazenly took advantage of my fine friends and neighbours in Conna, Co Cork. Through their good nature and helpfulness, they were persuaded to act the part of characters from Irish and Scottish folklore for this largely, whimsical project. These images are the result of great collaboration, years of planning and execution, adventure and adversity. Also, it was a lot of fun.”
The characters Lorna speaks of
