It seems like every time I go back something new has opened, something old has closed and someone has put a random 'spike' in the middle of a busy street.
Even during my most recent visit I was surprised at the amount of building work that was taking place. Especially given the problems with the economy (not that Ireland is the only place experience that particular issue).
Birmingham has some incredible street art, a stroll around Digbeth is visiting an art exhibition. But beyond tags on a wall I don't remember seeing anything like it growing up in Ireland.
When I mentioned to my brother Paul that I wanted to photograph some street art in the city centre (which most Dubliners will refer to as "town"), he knew exactly where to go to find some amazing work. I'm beginning to think that next time I'm home I should jump on the tourist bus and 're-acquaint' myself with Dublin.
Beware the dog! :-)
