Rory Breslin (b.1963) The June Mask Bronze, 75 cm high x 41.5 wide (35 x 16 ) Number 1 from an edition of 3 From the Clew Bay Series, which chronicles and celebrates the emergence of a selection of native flora and fauna as they appear by month in the Mayo bay area, The June Mask is ebullient and assured at the arrival of mid-summer or Meitheamh. A panoply of native flora; Honeysuckle, ferns, and Common Self-heal bustle to emerge on either side of her face. They are contained by Plantain leaves and the expansive leaves of the Lesser Burdock, the burrs of which were the inspiration for the invention of 'Velcro' by Swiss engineer, George de Mestral. Framing the chin of June, leaves of the Coltsfoot cradle the seedpods of the Birds-foot. Trefoil with a further dense array of Honeysuckle below. Around the eyes are the star-shaped Common Butterwort, or Bodán meascáin, whose leaves await to digest unfortunate insects. The work is crowned by the Irish Hare, whose head pushes through the leaves of Burdock.
