Justice

The word JUSTICE painted on the side of the hoarding surrounding the derelict site on Sullivan’s Quay in Cork seems appropriate.

So many homeless in the city, and this huge area is still a heap of rubble in the middle of the city. Not that whatever gets built there will help the homeless. It was supposed to be the site of a glass covered hotel AFAIR.

The Mysterious Woman with Fiery Locks

A detail from a mural showing a red haired woman. Her hair covers half her face. The Moon is visible in the background of the mural, while the top of the house forms an upside down V and a chimney sits on top.

The mural on Sullivans Quay, Cork, is an eye-catching image of a woman with fiery red hair. It was painted in October 2022 by Belgian painter, Kitsune Jolene.

You can read more about the mural here.

Have you stopped growing?

Graffiti on the hoarding around a derelict site says "STOPPED". The tops and bottoms of other characters are visible in the top and bottom of the photo. The background is a mixure of blues, purples and grey

Graffiti on the hoarding around the derelict site on Sullivan’s Quay asks the profound questions. “Have you stopped growing?”

Mind is like a garden

The murals and graffiti on the hoarding on Sullivan’s Quay, Cork changes all the time and the evening I shot this it bore the text, “Mind is like a garden”. You can see a mural in the background that I posted yesterday, and two women walking past.

Fiery Red Hair

The red hair of a mural on a wall. A "no parking" sign spoils the photo, but it's part of the scene.

The fiery, red hair of the mural on Sullivan’s Quay contrasts with the blue and dark background of the picture. I like the “no parking” sign, even if it’s distracting. I like the way the shadow of the pole and sign lies on the wall, duplicating the solid in the 2D world of the wall.

Should have put a park in there

The old Tax Office as it was in 2017. It’s now demolished and there’s an ugly building site there. Should have put a park in there for people to enjoy.

Was anyone unhappy to see this building demolished? It’s a shame the site is still unused.
