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

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.

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 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.

The old tax office on Sullivan’s Quay

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

Ten days ago more of the building was still up! Half of the front of the building has been torn down but there’s more to go.
