Seán Sills along with Mary Plunkett attended the 34th Annual Irish Print Awards last night at which Mary's MA project, a letterpress/etching/digital limited edition book titled ‘Night Prayer’ had been nominated in the 'Book' category. These awards acknowledge and celebrate excellence in printing on the island of Ireland. Not only did Sean & Mary win this category but went on to win the ‘Supreme’ award across all seventeen categories. They brought back to NCAD two framed certificates and a silver trophy, the latter of which is now to be viewed with Mary’s book in our display case outside the Print Workshop.
This is a further acolade for Mary as last month she gained the award of 'Masters Design Graduate of the Year' by the Institute of Designers in Ireland. (Mary is currently assisting Seán on a 2nd Year typography module in our workshop).
Well done Seán! Well done Mary!
