Pocket Money is a publication by Cóilín O’Connell in
collaboration with Isadora Epstein which features illustrations of forged coins and collaged currency minted by the
participants of a community workshop at Muine Bheag Arts in
2023.
Told from the point of view of a keen coin collector,
Pocket Money explores numismatics (the study of coins) and
its perils, showing that it really depends upon which side of
the coin you are looking at.

Grass Roots took place in August 2023 and included contributions from artists Cóilín O’Connell, Mollie Anna King, Niamh Seana Meehan and Holly Pickering. Voice Tracking was developed following conversations with the artists and encounters with the works as the programme unfolded.
The text narrates the movements of four archetypes; the Keeper, the Walker, the Glazier and the Instructor as they come across the works. Prose poetry, footnotes and symbols mark a route between artwork and setting as a strange series of events transpire.

Biennial
