SPLINTERS – a collection of poems by Mary Kennelly and paintings by Brenda Fitzmaurice seeks to strip away centuries of theology and tell the gospel story through a focus on humanity. In delving into the Gospel story, Brenda and Mary draw from their own place and people. The influence of their place is evident in walking around Mary’s home town of Ballylongford.
