Her work explores the psychology of territory and the persisting divisions in her homeland. Drawing is a critical part of de Burca’s practice and vision.

This work and WU1068 were part of a series of drawings de Burca created which document the plants inhabiting the grounds of Crom Estate and the surrounding borderlands, an area with a fractious history. The botanical detail is politically charged with questions of ownership and rights over a constantly evolving ecology.
