Caitriona Dunnett – Dereenacappera
'I participated in a residency on the Beara Peninsula and experimented with incorporating the land into my process. I walked to Ardgroom, along the Beara Way, in all weathers passing the shell of an old cottage. I looked for it each time and photographed it. The landscape disappeared as I gazed across Kenmare Bay. The world turned white. A hailstorm. It lifted and a rainbow framed Dogs Point. From Eyeries, I followed the coast to Kilcatherine Point, past the fossilised Cailleach Beara staring out to sea, forever waiting for her husband, the God of the Sea, to return. Amongst the headstones at the cemetery, were at least fifty rocks, marking the graves of the Cornish Miners brought over in the 19th century for copper extraction. As the sun dipped, it lit-up the bog’s tall, slender dancing grasses along Lough Fadda.' – Caitriona Dunnett
