OM DENNE EPISODE
John and Sheila talk to Joseph Walsh, designer, artist and furniture maker, about his upbringing and rural life, intergenerational learning, the idea of ‘making is thinking’ and the iterative, exploratory nature of craft. They discuss their twelve year collaboration, and the transition from intimate handcrafted pieces to the Rambling Houses project, as well as the challenges of interpreting traditional techniques for modern contexts, poetic and experimental materiality, and the interplay between architects, makers, and craftspeople on shared projects.
This conversation was recorded in Dublin in front of a small audience in July 2024.
