Descrição
Hola, I’m Tomás from Cork, Ireland.
I’m an artist and builder/maker. I recently finished building an outdoor Sauna & Ice-bath, and spent the summer here in Ireland working for music festivals creating large scale art installations.
I lived in Barcelona for 7 years, so speak Spanish quite well, and was travelling around Mexico last year for 6 months with Workaway, living in communities.
In Mexico I spent time in the Jungle in Yucatan, Mountains in Oaxaca, and remote beaches along the Pacific coast. I was building with natural materials, making furniture out of tree trunks, and creating murals. In the mountains we were building an adobe (wattle&daub) hut made with earth and pine needles. Learning about this method of building was incredibly interesting.
I'm looking to get out of Ireland for a few months in winter, work outdoors, spend some time by the sea.
I used to work as a sailing instructor in Kinsale, Co.Cork and have spent a lot of time racing sailing boats from dinghy's (Oppy/Laser class) up to yachts. I was also involved in setting up disabled sailing courses for the Irish Sailing Association (ISA), which are now ran as Sailability. I made a crossing of the Irish Sea as part of a delivery crew to drop a boat to Wales.
I would love to spend some time back on the water ⛵️
I like to work with sustainability in mind, and have a keen interest in landscaping, gardening and growing my own produce. I’ve built a polytunnel/raised bed which I designed myself to grow vegetables. I make my own hot-sauces with chilis I grew from seed. This summer I started making Kombucha.
My art installations for the festivals this year center'ed around Mobiles/Kinetic Sculptures. These were made out of steel, which I welded together and painted, and made various shapes out of ply (pyramids, cubes etc.) The mobile was then balanced and hanging with steel wire, and moved freely with the wind. The largest one was 7meters long x 3meters wide, hanging 10meter's high in a tree above a path. Pictured below.
I filmed and edited a video for the sauna build, it's a 20 minute start to finish full build video which I put together (and produced the music for haha) and recently built a rocket stove which I made a video of the process as well. On YouTube it's: 'Sauna Build Ireland' and 'Rocket Stove Ireland'
Some interests of mine are cooking, music, (I play guitar, piano, drums, and production) art , reading, writing and anything to do with the Ocean.
