THE MAYO WAY, 2022
Commission by the Mayo County Council
THE MAYO WAY (or the big M)
βThe Mayo Way is an interactive art installation which contains over 70 paintings of influential people and places of Mayo, from the past and the present. Walking around the structure is a journey of discovery through the 9 Baronies of our great county. With these paintings we are following in the footsteps of these Mayo giants, and we are reminded of their greatness by the 42 QR codes which direct us, via our mobile phones, to past articles and websites of these inspiring Mayo people.β
