Each piece captures the beauty of these locations and also includes a unique interactive element. Every painting has a QR code and by scanning the QR code visitors can access a virtual tour of the exact location that inspired each painting, creating an immersive and enriched experience.
This blend of traditional art and modern technology allows viewers to engage with Cathal's art on a deeper level, exploring the scenic beauty of County Clare both on canvas and virtually.
The background music in the VR tours is by the Pub Runners from Michigan, USA and this exhibition is taking place in conjunction with: the Clare Museum; Hitechniques, Dublin; and Treacy’s Hotel, Ennis
This free exhibition will run from the 10th September to 11th October, 2024, inclusive, and everyone is welcome.
