    Been a fan of this guys work for ages... couldn't believe he's doing a couple of pieces around Ennis... major kudos to the organisers in nabbing him. Street Art has come along way from graffiti tagging, and Conor is one of the internationally renowned street artists pushing the boat out in what was up until recently the domain of delinquents! If around ennis this weekend try to catch at work... his pieces in Galleries go for 10's of thousands of pounds sterling... he's currently attached to the same gallery as Banksy in London...

    here is he's blog where he goes into the meaning of this current series of installations that started last weekend in Dublin

    Noticed that this morning and was wondering where it came from. If nothing else, it's different!

    Went to have a look at these at the weekend and they're fantastic. This guys work is beginning to get quite popular so it's great to have a couple of big pieces in Ennis.
