My name is Rúairí McCarthy Griffin, I recently graduated from the National College of Art and Design in Fine Art Print. I focus primarily on Intaglio etching, with the use of photography to capture the image of interest. My work looks at the spiritual and physical beauty of the Wicklow Mountains and the folklore and mystery within them. heavily influenced by nature and mythology, i curated this collection of prints, 'Otherworldly', which are of various locations within the region. I focused on the detail and the illusion of seeing the unseen, luring in the viewer and getting lost in another world, using 'Gateways' and 'Passages' to describe my works, basing them from celtic mythology of the 3 otherworld realms of the mythos.
