My incredible urge to be a dadTHE centre-piece of artist John Adams’s latest exhibition at the Ballymaloe Grainstore is of a baby’s hand holding onto John’s finger. But even though I turned 55 last week, I still have an incredible desire and urge to be a father. Through his work, John has documented Cork harbour and Cork city, which resulted in two successful exhibitions. John took it all in and says he is adept at using hammers and saws. He adds: “It’s such a hard way to make a living.”Not that that has ever stopped this resilient and resourceful artist.
