Ardú Street Art Initiative arrives with the intention of injecting colour, vibrancy, and life into Cork city and aims to unite the Leeside community through art, lifting its creative energy at a time when it needs it most. Ardú welcomes seven of Ireland’s most respected and renowned street artists: MASER, Shane O’Driscoll, Deirdre Breen, Peter Martin, James Earley, ACHES, and Garreth Joyce, to create works at key city centre locations, in response to a theme inspired by the 1920 Burning of Cork.
The Ardú team are delighted to announce their return to Cork city’s streets from today September 27th, until October 11th, with four more large scale murals to brighten up the city centre landscape. Commissioning artwork from home grown talent of the highest level is the main aim of Ardú. The 2021 edition will welcome artists: Friz, Shane O’Malley, Conor Harrington and Asbestos…

This mural is by Aches not Maser. Great initiative & fantastic list of artists this year again.
And it would appear it’s on the corner of Anglesea Street and South Terrace from article here: https://www.corkbeo.ie/news/local-news/new-mural-master-brighten-up-19147657
Thanks, MW7, fixed now.
Conor Harrington is frickin brilliant.
