When I stacked them they were like steps of stairs or young children in a family. I profiled the largest piece into a human form silhouette and this evolved into a family of a couple and two children. The base compliments the walking theme as the direction of travel is sloping down and away in to the unknown. For some reason the piece evokes an image for me of the infamous famine walk of hundreds of starving and destitute people and families from Louisburgh to Delphi in Mayo via the magnificent Doo Lough valley. Many people including women and children perished on this tragic journey. The slenderness and matchstick profile represents the hunger but the straight back profile represents a defiance and dignity.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 11.0pt; font-family: 'Arial',sans-serif;\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"My Store","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48929483194711,"sku":"","price":420.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0849\/9829\/1799\/files\/IMG_0641.jpg?v=1723480028"},{"product_id":"defiance","title":"Defiance","description":"\u003cp\u003eDimensions - 47cm high (including steel base) x 15cm width x 12 cm depth\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWeight - 1.263Kg\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe original bog oak piece looked like a fist holding a spear in defiance so I sculpted the fingers, thumb and hand to emphasise the original feature.

As a result of peat harvesting many bog bodies which were buried in the bogs have been found phenomenally well preserved. The oldest fleshed bog body ever to have been found was discovered in Cashel bog in County Laois (Ireland) and was called Cashel man. Archaeologist reports identified that Cashel man was the victim of human sacrifice and had lived and died in the Early Bronze Age around 2000BC. Anyway I got the hammer and chisel from the jeep and determined that the torso entombed in this slab of boq oak was in fact wood and not bone. I chain-sawed the torso from the slab of bog oak and revealed an emaciated female form, holding something in her arms and appeared to be pleading for help. I visualised a desperate mother clutching her starving new born child during \"An Gorta Mor\" (Great Irish Famine) The original wood grain is uniquely twisted, gnarled and incredibly preserved. It is a wonder to ponder up close and physically touch.
