SCULPTURE IN CONTEXT AT THE BOTANIC GARDENS IN GLASNEVIN

Today I used a 12 year old Sony VG10E camcorder that uses a crop sensor and produces JPEG rather than RAW images which imposes many limitations. To be honest the camera worked better than I had expected.

Ester Barrett was born in Limerick in 1979. Ester, a self-taught artist, started painting full time at the age of 15, studying the techniques of the Old Masters and tuition from artists such as the late Jack Donovan.. Ester attended a bronze casting workshop in Leitrim sculpture centre in November 2010 and then focused on mould making, metal work, etc, She casts her work alongside Tim Morris Seamus Connolly. Her work is both representational and impressionistic in painting and sculpture and includes figurative pieces.

Her versatile output ranges from large scale civic, to private commission and large exhibition pieces to smaller sculptures which explore the figure in the context of the sensual and often surreal world which they inhabit. Major commissions include the equestrian memorial of the patriot Thomas Francis Meagher in Waterford, the Memorial to the much loved comedian Dermot Morgan, Merrion Square Dublin; and the central Alterpiece sculpture of the crucified Christ in the new basilica Fatima Portugal.
