BEAUTY AND THE BEAST

Over the last few years, the picturesque countryside of Omagh has felt the damaging consequences of rapid and unsustainable construction on the natural landscape. In addition, many wildlife habitats have been destroyed or disturbed as a result of deliberate gorse fires.

 

Beauty and the Beast attempts to sombrely highlight and articulate the strong sense of suffering and violence felt, not only towards the rural landscape but towards animals such as sheep and badgers who fall victim to human actions.

 

Through graphic visual images, the viewer is invited to consider and reflect upon the harrowing consequences of humanity’s damaging interference with our natural world.
