Legacy Plots are terrestrial visualisations of the rural landscape surrounding the Slivermines, Co. Tipperary. Whilst depicting, in part, the visible remnants of its former mining past, the artworks look to consider how geologic classification once enabled the transformation of territory into a readable map of resources and organized the apprehension of extraction and the designation of extractable territories. Surveying these sites via contemporary technologies used for applications such as navigation and cartography, Legacy Plots also explores how environmental sensors produce worlds that express distinct edges, limited conditions and endings, not unlike those narratives inextricably linked to environmental change. ​
