Cork's new crop of artists: Three Crawford graduates profiled 

 As the Crawford College of Art shows the work of its most recent graduates, we chat to three of them about their work 

Three of the artists showcasing at this year's Crawford graduate exhibition.

Lest We Salt The Earth is the title of this year’s degree show for graduating students of MTU Crawford College of Art and Design’s BA in Fine Art, and BA in Contemporary Applied Art. As the name suggests, a concern with ecology and environment underpins a great many of the exhibited works.

Three profiles of graduating students from the BA in Fine Art represent these concerns here, but as ever, the degree show is rich with fresh approaches across both the Fine Art and Contemporary Applied Art class groups.
