Home-Grown
'Home-Grown' is a photographic book which aims to give the viewer/reader an insight into the farming situation in Ireland today. It illustrates to the viewer the fact that farmers are being forced to diversify their farms in order to earn a sufficient income. This work is based on a farm which has been transformed by the farmer into a tourist attraction; Doagh Isle Famine Village. This centre depicts scenes from the Irish Famine connecting that situation with what is happening in third world countries today. It is a documentation of old and new brought together under one cover, giving the viewer an insight into what can become of the farming crisis, which is continuing to leave many with an uncertain future.
