Twigín is the creation of Irish visual artist Ciara O’Connor. Ciara and her family moved from Dublin to her mother’s hometown of Kenmare in the summer of 2022. Inspired by the creativity and entrepreneurship of the busy market town, she began thinking of ways to integrate her artwork into sustainable, eco-friendly gifts that would also bring her work to a wider audience. Focusing on her thread drawings of Irish literary, music and revolutionary icons, people she has drawn repeatedly throughout her life, she set about sourcing the most ethical, environmentally aware suppliers she could find. All paper is sustainable and recycled, inks are eco-friendly, and fabric is 100% certified Organic Fairtrade Cotton. The name Twigín came from the nickname Ciara’s mother Doris gave her as a child, a fitting tribute to the woman whose strength and tenacity inspired her to take the leap into starting her own business. The colours of Twigín are inspired by the Irish landscape, particularly the wildflowers and hedgerows around Doris’ native Kenmare – gorse yellow, foxglove purple, forest green and the fiery orange red of montbretia.
