About

'Affinities' by Illustrators Ireland
What links our creative consciousness? What feeds our collective output? Away from modern life and the onslaught of global information, our minds draw inspiration from the spaces around us as well as the spaces within. As Illustrators the members of Illustrators Ireland make a living from being creative. Often within the confines of a work week. This means being able to switch creativity on between the hours of nine and five, Monday to Friday. Coming up with ideas on request, having the ability to pivot creatively at the drop of a hat and being able to collaborate with other creatives to achieve a shared vision is part of an illustrator's journey. Originally funded by Irish Design Week and in collaboration with The Space Between, the members of Illustrators Ireland have created this poster show to celebrate the activities and places that inspire creativity.
