Savage Beauty Galway 2020 © Cormac Mac Mahon

Described as “a savage beauty” by Oscar Wilde, Connemara is rural Ireland at its most dramatic. Kari Kola’s installation of 1,000 lights spread over a distance of 5 kilometres, transforming the mountains in a wash of vibrant pulsating colours.

 

Galway 2020 European Capital of Culture presented Savage Beauty. The artwork transformed Ireland’s Connemara mountains with colour and light in the largest site-specific light artwork ever created.
