Through a series of otherworldly illustrations, I have reimagined Western Ireland as
a place haunted by forgotten folklore and elusive creatures born from the most natural
shape there is - the spiral.

Rooted in love for the landscape I grew up in, this work creates a fantasy world to lure
urban dwellers out of their cities and into the wild in search of these mythical beings.

At the heart of this project is an illustrated scroll, chronicling four spiral beings that
roam this fabled west. It’s accompanied by a poster campaign designed to inspire
the people of Dublin to engage with my brand of mythical tourism. Finally, a
photographic record of every spiral that I saw in the wild inspired a mixed-media
animation bringing an organic flow to my explorations.


This project is a call to unravel, to seek and to spiral outward towards something
wilder, beyond the pale.
