“Danu” by for
Jolene’s mural is a twist on the mythology around Celtic mother goddess Danu, combined with the river Lee running through Cork alongside the piece on Sullivans Quay which reflects the Milky Way on clear nights. “I like to think that even today, no matter who you meet or cross paths with on the streets, they could be gods in disguise. These ‘modern classics‘ are a lot of fun for me to do as a take on that. The woman I’ve painted is a bit anonymous with just the sliver of her face visible, adding to the notion she could be anyone, passing through the streets of Cork. The stars and galaxies are spinning out of her red hair as a nod to the movement and flow of the river, the heart and soul of Cork City shaping and defining the energy of the city”.
