The Artwork - Alternus Energy ARTs

Aisling Kelly

In the Thick of It

I took photographs on film and used bleach to paint on the prints and depict what will be left of our only home if we continue not to act urgently and fight the fire humans have created.

Anjali Ramadas

The Last Sunset

My artwork depicts an abnormally large stag watching a sunset by a cliff with a young boy and girl on his back enjoying the view.

Bonnie O’Halloran

Ray of Light

An exploration of modern values relating to sustainability, energy, the sun and the youth of today. A contemporary Deity driven by a love for community, pushing for a brighter future.

Brendan Atkins

Dis/Connected

I explored the idea of connection and disconnection by hand-painting each rectangular cell of the solar panel a different colour, thereby creating a pixelated version of an image of my homeplace.

Claire Moran

Rally of Saviours

My theme or what my work was based on was the point of view or actions of the business world with or against SDG’s elements and action.

Daniel Power

Take Care

The design expresses this message with large scale type and is accompanied by an abstract version of a Celtic love knot, which in this case represents the interconnectedness of us and nature, and a personified depiction of the Earth.

Erin Flood

A Shard of Life

A design featuring a checkerboard background imitating the grid like nature of solar panels with spots of colour composed of collages of plants cells and plant leaves paying homage to life and nature.

Eva Vituka

Give us A Future

A projected piece depicting light and the power of the sun in a new way. I used light-sensitive paper to make a series of chemigrams as an exploration of the power of light.

Fiona Stuehmer

Infinite

A typographic solar panel design based on the idea of infinite energy sources. Realised through cutouts and printing. Exhibited as a mirror installation.

Harith Mohd Farid

The Sun and the little people

A mural illustrating the Sun and small worlds. The Sun takes the form of a deity, inspired by ancient depictions of the Sun. I was interested in how people revered the Sun in ancient times.

Holly Hughes

Creating A Sustainable Future Starts With Community and Collaboration

My design focuses on the theme of ‘Home’ and ‘Sustainable Cities and Communities’. The solar becomes a home for a community who are connected and interacting through sustainable living practices.

Karl Coleman

Dragon

For this project I aimed to tackle the theme of sustainable communities. Using an illustrative style that mimics the look of stained-glass windows, I decided to explore this theme through a basic sequential narrative in 4 parts entitled ‘Dragon’.

Laura Kleis

Every Act has an Impact

I created 66 solar cell sized collaged illustrations that show some of the main human-caused impacts on the earth – our planet, our home.

Lieske Keegstra

Youth

This piece is about fostering more love for nature and a reminder why we keep fighting for a brighter and greener future.

Louise Daly

Light Into Art

A simple and elegant response by transforming the panels into decorative walls to be of many functional use. The design allows for the panels to maintain their purpose for solar conversion, but now they transform the light into art.

Magdalena Konecna

The Solar Spinach Journal

My artwork is a series of spinach anthotypes. Each one of them is a journal entry focusing on my consumption.

Mariana Gonzalez

Limited offer

Reinforcing the value of fossil fuels as a finite resources by looking at them as a limited offer advertisement. The panels will be used as billboards to display the ad.

Molly Canning

Birds of Ireland

This piece is about bringing attention to the severe species decline of birds in Ireland, their home. The biggest reason for this decline is habitat loss, agriculture being a big part of that.

Niamh Kirby

Wider - world

For my project I wanted to expand on the theme ‘Home’ and look into the wider-world of insects and their natural habitat.

Oonagh O’Brien

Evolve

My animation is about the unity of humans and nature, as we are part of nature. Although we think nature serves us, I believe that it should be the other way around, we should take care of what we cannot live without.

Ronan Foley

A Brighter future

‘A Brighter future’ is a solar-punk depiction of a happier, more sustainable and community focused future.

Tara Fetherston

Sol-hare panel

Based on one of the national animals of my ‘home’ Ireland, my piece draws reference from the folklore surrounding the Hare and its relation to sunlight.

Thomas Oisin Morelli

Bleak or Bright City

This illustration shows a civilisation that becomes environmentally sustainable, and hence stops climate crisis, and shows a civilisation that did not become sustainable, and that has been destroyed by the worsened climate.

Vera Lorente Romero

We Have The Key

Human beings have the key to keep Mother Nature safe by taking care of her, since she is the one who allows us to live on Earth and gives us many other benefits that we are destroying.
