NICHE by Orla de Brí [UNIVERSITY CAMPUS LIMERICK MAY 2018]
When I first photographed this a few years ago I thought that this was the "diver" and could not find any relevant information but as a result of my 2021 visit and the use of a reverse image search I discovered that the artist responsible was Orla de Brí. I am now in the process of publishing the 2021 and 2018 images.
In 2021 I used a Sony A7RIV with a Voigtlander 40mm lens In 2018 I used a Sony A7RIII with a Sony FE 24-70mm lens
