Her passion for abandoned buildings and love of photography has led her to appear on several local television shows on UTV, BBC, and RTE featuring some of Ireland&#x27;s lost buildings. Her forthcoming book &#x27;Abandoned Ireland&#x27; will be in shops and ready to buy in November 2022. Rebecca will talk about her journey and her work. https://www.abandonedni.com/ 2.30-3.30pm Mathieu Decodts PhotographyA gifted artist who has worked with pencil, paint and clay, Mathieu discovered a passion for photography in his artistic development that has not left him since.
