Lunacy came about when Patrick Faulkner discovered unused collage material created by his uncle Dr Kenneth Mackey whose work as a psychiatrist at Callan Park influenced his artworks. Faulkner who has worked as a psychiatric nurse shared his uncle’s interest in the history of madness and explores these notions through collage and drawing.
