Brendán O’ Piotán is a self taught sculptor working with wood and metal. He began creating his Celtic sculptors 20 years ago, inspired by local folklore about mystical fairy trees and the rugged landscape of Achill Island, Co. Mayo, his family home. The basic elements of bog oak and copper capture the subtle tones of mysticism and the natural appeal of the landscape.
Brendán has created many original works over the years, including commissions for Universities, State bodies, private collections and a privately commissioned piece for Hillary Clinton.
Brendán lives in Galway, in the West of Ireland.
