Studying art on an island: Three graduate students on their Sherkin experiences
L-R: Sherkin Island visual arts graduates Sarah Wainwright, Sorcha Browning and Hammond Journeaux
The BA in Visual Art (BAVA) graduate exhibition on Sherkin Island, West Cork, is arguably the most unique degree show in the country. It runs at various locations around the island, with work being shown in historic structures and contemporary venues, as well as in the landscape itself.
BAVA is a community-based, four-year honours programme fully accredited, managed and delivered by the Dublin School of Creative Arts, Technological University Dublin (TU Dublin), in partnership with Sherkin Island Development Society and Uillinn: West Cork Arts Centre.
