Transforming what many would consider the boring, everyday items, their work brings a new zest and colour to otherwise dull and dreary laneways, benches and parks.
'Beat Seats', their latest project, repurposes cement jersey barriers at Hanover Quay to act as supports for three handmade xylophone benches.
The goal is to make people stop and smell the roses, or in this case, stop and hear the music.
The benches were designed in collaboration with Garry jones and features street art by Irish artist DUDA, most well-known for his work on the top floor of the new World Trade Centre in NYC as well as his most recent collaboration with U2’s The Edge.
'Beat Seats' will stay at Hanover Quay for the month of October before going on tour around the country for other communities to enjoy.
So get down and put on a musical performance to remember...or sit and rest your weary bones, whichever.
