Cork-based photographer David Creedon’s stunning, large scale
photographs document Cuba's small population of piano tuners and technicians
at work in Havana's National Workshop of Instrument Repair. Una Corda is
inspired by the Irish group of the same name, which transports Irish experts
and supplies to Cuba to mentor and train this new generation of piano tuners,
bringing life to music schools throughout the country.

Woodturning artist Michael J. Brolly’s recent sculptures combine the
form of household objects with images based in personal and political history. His
painstakingly crafted bowls, teacups, and soup pots take the form of fine bone
china or ancient wooden cauldrons recovered from the Irish bogs, and the images
within them refer to the political and religious strife faced by many residing
in Northern Ireland, Vietnam, and other sites of conflict over the last century. Brolly’s
work is simultaneously deeply personal – as in works that reflect the challenges
associated with emigration faced by his parents and countless other Irish who
came to the United States during the twentieth century – and universal.
Michael J. Brolly’s lathe-turned objects have been exhibited all over
the United States and internationally in Australia, Canada, Germany, Ireland,
and the United Kingdom. He holds an MFA in Wood Furniture Design from the
University of Massachusetts and a BFA in Fine Arts from Kutztown University in
Pennsylvania. Click here for Visual Archive |
