Paddy O’Malley makes art from out of studying the shoreline.  His concrete pieces look like a part of the beach was picked up at low tide the way the waves arranged it and dropped in someone’s house.  He has the utmost respect for Mother Nature, she is both his muse and, in many cases, his material.

The Tweed Project created handmade, one off pieces that combine beautiful Irish fabrics with modern tailoring for a truly authentic expression of Irish design.

The collection is made entirely of Irish fabrics, in Ireland for the world.

Operating from a small Atelier in Galway, the collection is hand made from specially selected cuts of premium Donegal Tweed and Irish Linen.  Being small means that each garment gets all the love and attention that makes for an authentic one off piece of Irish design.

Joe Hogan has been making baskets at Loch na Fooey since 1978 and in that time has earned a reputation for making strong, durable baskets of the highest quality. The colours in these award winning baskets are those of the natural willows which are grown at Loch na Fooey.

In 2012 he began making nests.  The aim has not been to make copies of the nests of various species of birds but rather to make nest-like objects which prompt the feeling that we are looking at a bird’s nest and thus evoke some of the feelings of joy and wonder which might accompany the finding of nests in the wild. The nests have an artlessness to them as I do not want it to be obvious that they have been made by a person.

In October 2021, he was the Crafts Council of Ireland Lifetime Achievement Award winner and received his award at Dublin Castle from President of Ireland / Uachtarán na hÉireann Michael D. Higgins.
