An early Daniel Doyle Sand Sculpture from August 1998 in GMIT C'bar court yard

Summary

[edit]
Description
English: The Daniel Doyle Sand Sculpture was in the court-yard of St Mary’s Psychiatric Hospital (or onetime St Mary’s Lunatic Asylum), now Galway Mayo Institute of Technology – Castlebar Campus.

Daniel Doyle went on form the Duthain Dealbh partnership with brothers Niall and Alan Magee. Duthain Dealbh means “fleeting sculpture” in Irish, which is fitting for artists who work with sand. The Duthain Dealbh partnership have been commissioned by the OPW to present a sand sculpture exhibition as a summer highlight in the upper courtyard of Dublin Castle since the year 2000. The sand sculpture exhibition runs on a different theme every year, and is on display throughout July and August. The 3 artists that make up the Duthain Dealbh partnership met in Dublin Institute of Technology (DIT) where they studied fine art with a focus on sculpting. If you like what you see here you should check out the National Sand Castle and Sand Sculpturing Competition that take place around the date of the summer solstice every year since 2003 on Bettystown Beach. the National Sand Castle and Sand Sculpturing Competition is organised by Meath East Sand Sculptures, a local voluntary committee. More details on their website. This is a different event from the annual Sand Sculpting festival during the August bank holiday in Duncannon Beach, County Wexford. Again more details on their website.

This temporary public art piece had disintegrated by the Halloween break in Semester 1.
