PIGSY’s “De Facto Leader” in An Capall Dorcha Literary & Art Periodical

I’m proud to announce that my artwork “De Facto Leader” has been officially selected for inclusion in the next issue of An Capall Dorcha literary and art periodical. Issue 3 (Wild) will be available in Autumn through various independent booksellers in Ireland.

An Capall Dorcha - available in independent Irish bookstores

An Capall Dorcha is a literary journal with a focus on art and the written word. It includes short stories, poetry and art created by a regular team of contributors along with submissions from other creatives. An Capall Dorcha is available from The Winding Stair Bookshop, Marrowbone Books, Charlie Byrne’s Bookshop and also the giftshop in MOLI the Museum of Literature of Ireland in Dublin City on St Stephen’s Green. It’s also available in Books Upstairs which is Dublin’s oldest independent bookshop.

An Capall Dorcha - The Dark Horse

An Capall Dorcha translates from Irish to English as “The Dark Horse” and for you language buffs who are interested in the Irish language (gaeilge),” art and writing” translates to “ealaín agus litríocht” - pronounced “ah-leen ah-gus lih-tri-oct”.

Pictured below is “De Facto Leader” which will feature in An Capall Dorcha.
