Main contractor: Irish Natural Stone Ltd.
Client: Mary Immaculate College, Limerick
Architect: Hugh Kelly
A ‘map’ of the river
Shannon, from Killaloe to the estuary. In this work, the central idea was to position
the college in its environment, not only in the topological sense, but from
multiple viewpoints - historical, cultural, educational, social, and political
and so on. The work takes the form of a drawing, measuring eight by thirteen meters,
engraved into a limestone clad wall of the recently completed ‘Tara’ building
