Photographed on St. Stephen's Day 2021. Artist: Mickey Shu-Ting Chan Artwork Title: ‘Mime in the box' Artwork Location: Terenure Road North/Ashdale Road, Terenure, Dublin 6W Artwork Description: The incarnation of the famous invisible box illusion performed by mime’s has just been hijacked! Just this time - the mime is trapped in a REAL box! It’s a humorous piece that aims to put a smile on people’s face. Biography: Mickey’s Taiwanese name is Shu-Ting, it means “book, pretty”. She was given the nickname Mickey by her mates at a young age, because they thought she looked like that famous mouse; ever since then she’s known as Mickey Chan, sometimes as an art director and sometimes as a graphic designer. She has only recently found out that in Ireland, Mickey could also mean...a male organ.
Capel Street was laid out in the seventeenth century by Humphrey Jervis to link the new Essex Bridge (now Grattan Bridge) to the Great North Road. Originally a fashionable residential street of houses it became largely commercialised around 1800 and this building stands as a testament to this later development.
