The most notable difference between the projects, has been the lack of cohesion in the interviews for St. Patrick’s Day in Ballybeg. Unlike its predecessor, these have ranged in content and viewpoint; providing an unwieldy archive that defies simple narrativization. This is perhaps a consequence of the projects broader enquiry, as opposed to the more personal focus of Communion.
In response to this, I am considering the limited nature of banners a literary device for communicating information. A form restricted by spatial concerns and defined by a declarative tone. In designing the publication for the project, I am embracing these restraints and echoing the fragmented nature of the archive in the book’s form.
