Tynan
One Day in Dublin (2012) was submitted to the KRF1 Artist Notebook Project, and is now in the permanent collection of Kildare
Co Co. This notebook imagines a stroll through contemporary Dublin. Kind of like Ulysses, if Joyce had been reading the Metro Herald. One Day in Dublin is a work of fiction.
