Tug Of War

Tipperary Indian Community hosted The Clonmel Summer Fest on Sunday, July 20. One of the many attractions was a Tug of War competition.

Tug of War is a serious competitive sport in India governed by the national Tug-War-Federation founded in 1958. Our local team Tug Warriors Clonmel, went all the way to a great final bringing a lot of joy and excitement to the festival attendees.

Martin Parr Foundation Members' Photo Awards

I had a great pleasure joining Martin Parr and fellow foundation members for a zoom photo award event on September 26th.

This year’s theme was ‘Humour Is Everywhere’ and my photo from a Clonmel Show (below) was selected by Martin as the 3rd place winner. I was excited to hear that Martin also liked other images in my gallery.

Hurling project. 10 years later.

In my last blog post, I’ve shared a few photographs from my Hurling project shot back in 2013. The person who helped me with getting access to the events was Sean Nugent who was a Tipperary GAA’s chairman back then.

Fast forward to 2020. I join a local running group Premier Runners. A few weeks later the group joins a man called Eelco. Over many many kilometres of shared pain and laughter, we become really good friends.

End of 2022. We learn that Sean Nugent is Eelco’s father in law. I come up with an idea for a collaborative art project with Eelco’s daughter, Eve.
