Brief: Make a contemporary piece inspired by the traditional Limerick Lace.
For this piece, I figured that as the brief was based off of Limerick Lace, I would take my own inspiration from my hometown of Limerick and it's very own social activists/comedy duo the Rubberbandits. Limerick is a city that thrives off of it's youth culture, so I included symbols such as a packet of Amber Leaf and Air Max "Takkies", but also one that is deeply connected to the Catholic religion seen through an embellished cross.
This piece was included in the Hybrid Lace Multi-site Exhibition that took place across Limerick City in October of 2016.
