These tapestries were originally intended for inclusion in the artist’s Arts Council Retrospective in 1984 however this idea was never realised. We are grateful to Terry Dunne for his kind assistance in cataloguing these works. Dunne continues his successful practice in County Wexford and has since produced commissioned pieces for O’Malley’s wife Jane, Michael Smurfit & The K Club, Co.
