Event | FURZE Launch – Shane Finan at Knockree Youth Hostel

Event Details

‘FURZE: Fuel, Fodder, Thatch, Tools, Toys’ is a new multiform, site-specific work conceived by Shane Finan, encompassing art works, object making, research, talks and workshops.

Housed in a specially constructed ‘pavilion’ made of furze boughs and located at Knockree Hostel in Wicklow’s Uplands, the project invites a re-examination of the place of this enduring plant in our landscape.

Commissioned by Anne Mullee for Mermaid Arts Centre, FURZE: Fuel, Fodder, Thatch, Tools, Toys is funded by The Arts Council and supported by Wicklow County Arts Office through the annual Strategic Project Award Scheme.
