Tighe O'Donoghue
Rooted An exhibition of prints by Tighe O' Donoghue Ross opened on Tuesday February 6th to the sound of uileann pipes and whistles by Dave Hegarty and Michael Doody. The exhibition titled 'Rooted' will run until March 3rd, 2007, Monday through Saturday, 9 a.m. to 6 p.m and includes prints from Tighe's son, Eoghan, and daughter D'Ana.
Much of the art of Tighe O'Donoghue Ross is rooted in the medieval and this interest in the great classical themes coupled with his love of his Irish heritage produces a body of work that spring from the mist of time.
"In Tighe's Children of Lir the four swan-children look like a single tower of strength and feathers, full of awkwardness yet also full of grace as they strive for the heavens," said Gallery owner Frank Lewis. "The piece is an evocative expression of jealousy, determination, love and frustration and these are emotions that surface time and again in Tighe's work."
