GLASNEVIN AREA OF DUBLIN

GLASNEVIN AREA OF DUBLIN 2021 - 2022 PHOTO DIARY

A mainly residential neighbourhood, Glasnevin is located on the Northside of the city of Dublin (about 3 km north of Dublin city centre). It was established on the northern bank of the River Tolka where the stream for which it may be named joins, and now extends north and south of the river.

Three watercourses flow into the Tolka in the area. Two streams can be seen near the Catholic "pyramid church", the Claremont Stream or Nevin Stream, flowing south from Poppintree and Jamestown Industrial Estate branches, and what is sometimes called the "Cemetery Drain" coming north from the southern edge of Glasnevin Cemetery. In addition, a major diversion from the Wad River comes from the Ballymun area, joining near the Claremont Stream.

The boundaries of Glasnevin stretch from the Royal Canal to Glasnevin Avenue and from the Finglas Road to the edges of Drumcondra. It is bordered to the northwest by Finglas, northeast by Ballymun and Santry, Whitehall to the east, Phibsboro and Drumcondra to the south and Cabra to the southwest.

BOTANIC GARDENS 20 SEPTEMBER 2022I USED AN iPHONE 12 PRO MAX

At the moment Sculpture In Context 2022 is ongoing at the Botanic Gardens but there is another event that I plan to photograph and it is described below:

For the nature lovers and night owls, Dublin Fringe Festival teams up with the National Botanic Gardens, Glasnevin and axis: Ballymun for the opening up of Ireland's premier city garden at night, for the first time, in the spectacular Remnant Ecologies by Jony Easterby.

A large-scale outdoor light and sound installation across a 1.3km route that will give thousands of visitors exclusive access to the Botanic Gardens after dark. In this rare feast for the senses, the artist tries to make sense of a world, in which a passion for nature is mixed with the anxiety for its future. Expect empty birdcages, playful songs, the insides of cuckoo clocks and fragments from botanical dictionaries and illustrations are all intertwined through a series of works, their story winding through the sublime location.

Performances 21 - 25 September, 20:00 – 22:30, various times, €12
Venue National Botanic Gardens, Glasnevin
