JOE CASLIN’S WORK hit a national spotlight in 2015 thanks to a mural called the Claddagh Embrace.

The image of two men embracing on the side of the Rick’s Burgers building on Dame St became something of a visual icon of the #YesEquality campaign, despite being washed off within a few days thanks to rainfall.

The Roscommon born artist uses his art as a means to encourage public engagement with murals relating to mental health, direct provision, drug legislation and more.

Caslin’s large-scale photo-realistic portraits, usually wheat pasted onto buildings, have covered walls at Trinity College, Collins Barracks and more.

Here are 7 Caslin creations you may have spotted around Ireland – and beyond.

2. ‘Young and Troubled’ on RTÉ’s Donnybrook Campus
