Iron Bullets, currently in a research and development phase, project by visual artist James Luke Hayes, looking at the culture of Road Bowling in county Cork. Through engagement with individuals and groups within the road bowling community, Hayes will initiate a longer term collaborative project, working with bowlers and other artists to co-create an imagined future for this game, part of Cork’s rich cultural heritage.

James L Hayes is an Irish contemporary visual artist whose current work and research practice reinvests a modernist sculptural language. Recent projects use methods of artistic production as a means by which to interrogate the boundaries between artist, artisan and art object in order to draw out the often-incongruous relationships between finished art objects, and the industrial aspects of the processes that produce these revered objects.

Further information will be available in early 2022.
