Award-winning artist Alan Clarke has been commissioned to develop a spectacular new sculpture for Galway City. ‘Gailbhe’ will be a stunning visual representation of Galvia or Gaillimh, who was a mythological princess of the Firbolg tribe, after whom Galway is said to be named. The sculpture will grace the new Salmon Weir Pedestrian and Cycle Bridge. This project is funded by the Department of Transport through the Percent for Art scheme.
