EMMA BOURKE EXHIBITS IN THE IRELAND NEWFOUNDLAND TRAIL: A
 JOURNEY OF PLANTS AND PEOPLE, WATERFORD
The 
Ireland Newfoundland Trail: A Journey of Plants and People is a 
collaboration of creators in fine art and craft from both Ireland and 
Newfoundland. The exhibition exposes a piece of the story of Irish 
settlers to Newfoundland.
The 
Ireland Newfoundland Trail: A Journey of Plants and People is an 
exhibition which centres on plants, most of them considered simple 
plants, many of which border our roadways or live happily in our meadows
 and sometimes adorn our home gardens. The purpose of the exhibition is 
to encourage the telling of stories by the viewers as we compare 
versions to those of others who live an ocean apart.
Included in 
this exhibition is Emma Bourke, who is showing intricate flameworked 
glass pieces of plants frequently inform her broader practice. The 
exhibition continues until Saturday 1st September 2012 at the Garter 
Lane Gallery in Waterford city.
