Title
Irish traditonal cultural holidays, Ireland - Kulturwochen auf der Insel Inis Mór (Inishmore), Aran Islands, Irland
Description
In 1974 the artist Elizabeth Zollinger moved from Switzerland to Inishmore. She has developed an intimate relationship with the Island, its people and its culture. It is this intimacy and her excellent relations with the local islanders that inspired her to develop the Celtic Spirit Project in 1996, a series of Cultural Weeks which aim to preserve and retain the true culture and heritage of Inishmore while developing and promoting a sustainable tourism for the Island.
“ Full of warmth, with a great love for life, these were the people who welcomed me to the island of Inis Mór. They are proud people too, proud of their old culture and keen to retain it.
As a painter, I was equally enthralled by the landsacpe’s primal beauty, by the wild Atlantic and above all by the fabulous light and the intensity of the local colours. I was truly enchanted and so I returned year after year.
