The Art of Perfume | Cliona Doyle in collaboration with The Burren Perfumery at SO Fine Art Editions


28 September to 4 November 2017

SO Fine Art Editions will present the original seven etchings with their accompanying line drawings, along with new work by Cliona Doyle, and the range of perfumes, in this collaborative exhibition.

The Burren Perfumery, maker of small batch perfumes and cosmetics inspired by the iconic limestone of the Burren landscape and its unique flora, collaborates with artist Cliona Doyle to create a unique look for the Perfumery’s fragrances based on the landscape and flora of the Burren.

Sadie Chowen, creator and founder of The Burren Perfumery, first came across Cliona Doyle’s work when staying in The Merrion Hotel in Dublin. Cliona’s artwork reflects a sense of place and captures moments of the Irish natural landscape, with a sensibility which resonated with Sadie . A birthday gift of an original print from her husband inspired Sadie to contact Cliona with a proposal for this collaboration. The subject of each artwork was chosen to reflect a particular aspect or season of the Burren. Over the course of a year, Cliona recorded the plants and landscapes of the Burren on copper plates, then developed each work into her unique botanical style. From the fresh spring flowers of the fragrant orchid for the Ilaun eau de parfum through to red berries of hawthorn for Winter Woods eau de toilette, each perfume in turn found its muse.
