LOVE - Share the LOVE... A message from Sean Corcoran; I don't often explain the background to my work but here goes...I believe we need to stand together right now to overcome this global crisis. I try to keep my work positive and I usually keep politics out of it but...I have to say it saddens me deeply at the moment to witness how the American public is being manipulated by their president. All I can see are his attempts to apportion blame in order to make up for his own failures during this pandemic. I believe that Americans are dying because of his actions and inactions. His only agenda appears to be the elections in November. I have faith that Americans citizens will realise what is actually happening under their noses. I have many friends in the States and I really hope this doesn't offend any of you but I'm just trying to give you my honest opinion from the outside looking in. Today I have been looking at the philosophy of Martin Luther King in an attempt to make sense of it all. The following quote of his sums up the kind of approach that I too like to use…“Returning hate for hate multiplies hate, adding deeper darkness to a night already devoid of stars. Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that. Hate multiplies hate, violence multiplies violence, and toughness multiplies toughness in a descending spiral of destruction.”

Celtic Fusion...Sand Art on Bunmahon Beach today by Sean Corcoran. "It was my first time to venture beyond 2km since returning from a project in Texas nearly 8 weeks ago. This is part of a series of solo drawings I'm working on that I've been trying to capture with my drone. I only have 2 batteries for my drone and they each last for a maximum of 20 minutes. I'd usually have more time to create a drawing so this limitation means I need to be more innovative with my approach and timing. You might be able to see that I do rough outlines of the artwork in advance using a stick. I see these artworks as a cross over between performance art, animation and sand art. The scale of the artworks is a lot more limited but the process is a lot more intense. Excited about the potential of this new technique for bigger projects in the future. The music in this video is by Norwegian composer Alexander Nakarada."
