Rewilding

Welcome to my page of artwork celebrating, promoting and documenting
Irish Natural Heritage
as part of the
‘Re-Wilding’ of an An Spéir, a 3 acre piece of land in rural Ireland.

‘Rewilding is a simple concept: giving land back to wildlife and wildlife back to the land.
To rewild is to restore natural processes, revive degraded habitats, reintroduce species either missing or depleted, and then step back and watch as the ecosystem becomes self-willed and self-regulating once again in an alchemy of flux, dynamism and unpredictability.’
