battery acid and burning



I dipped galvanize in battery acid and allowed to rust. I burnt galvanize with a rubber tyre. I equated all the cutting with grinders to driving my motor bike. it's very physical and needs a bit of skill. Gareth the tutor likened me to mad max!.

Gathering

This is the photo I chose for the gathering exhibition in Shannon Airport. We're packing up after the South West Rally in 2011 near Ballyheigue, Kerry.

pinhole camera


I'm happy with these results. I did invert them, cos this is the negative.

3rd year

I set up my bathroom as a darkroom. I made a pinhole camera from a cereal box. Then I got some photos of my bike.

2012 plastic bottles and black wood
