Blue Print at Eigse 2012
Some of our members are participating in the The Tullow Street Popup Project programme of the Eigse Carlow Arts Festival exhibition courtesy of The Blue Print, an artists cooperative based in the Carlow area. The venue is Buzz's Cafe Bar, 7 Tullow Street (map), in the town centre. The exhibition is curated by locally based artist Brandon McLane, who
brings his experience of the San Fransisco art scene to down-town
Carlow. There's three floors of a very eclectic mix of contemporary representational and abstract art, video, live performance and animation. Oh, and gory art-house(?!) zombie flicks...

The Commonage project
Ian attended the Commonage Summer School in Callan from 13th July until 23rd July.
Projection painting at the Solar space Cafe
My aim for the cafe was to direct a communal painting, to involve both volunteers & members of the public. I also wanted to see how successfully a computer drawing could be transcribed in the real world in this manner. I was allocated the back wall space in the gallery to do a mural. During prep work I drilled & screwed in various large pieces of cardboard to the wall and coated it all in white primer.
When putting "solar space" into a search engine I found several depictions of a proposed satellite array of solar panels capable of harvesting the sun's energy 24/7. What caught my eye was that the frame of the array was hexagonal; a shape which I felt tied in with our honey-cone logo motif.
I outlined the drawing in charcoal. A table was set up with brushes and paints next to the wall. Some of the volunteers helped paint in the outlines prior to and during the first day of the festival.

I made a simplified abstracted version of the solar panel array in a
vector drawing format and had it printed onto acetate. This was laid on
the projector. Once the projected image's size and placing on the wall
were determined satisfactorily the acetate was sellotaped down and the
projector's degree of magnification, its position and angle were marked
off with masking tape in order to ensure the projection wasn't moved.
Not only that the table's position and angle the projector rested on
were marked off with masking tape as well.
