One week before Dublin went into its second lockdown in October, I visited the city and snapped a few shots of old and new street art pieces. The image featured above is the work of two Italian artists, Valdis & Tilf. They painted the piece in 2013 in Smithfield Square as part of the MURO Street Art Festival in Dublin.
Below is a selection of several more artworks from the neighborhoods of Smithfield, City Center and Portobello, crafted mainly by local Irish artists:
Dublin native graffiti artist, muralist and graphic designer Aches
Hand painted portrait by the socially-conscious Dublin-based collective Subset
Dublin-based sign painter and lettering artist Vanessa Power
Irish artist and educator Joe Caslin “I will find a way through this / I am not alone / I will hold on / Look after yourself,” — part of the Look After Yourself campaign by the Irish Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy
