This exhibition of travel journals, created during a two-week stay in Ireland, allows you to discover the Emerald Isle through the eyes and emotions of a traveller who is passionate about sketching.
For two weeks, Didier Locicero travelled the roads of Ireland, sketchbook in hand, to capture landscapes, encounters and precious moments. The exhibition A (drawn) journey in Ireland is not just a graphic account of a trip: it is an invitation to slow down, observe, soak up the present moment and, in turn, recount your own travels in a different way.
