The story behind the collection....
The art in the public realm of CUH is made up of two collections. The first collection, known as The Collection, began in CUH in 1998 and is made up of over 320 artworks donated as gifts to the hospital over the past 20 years. The second collection is The West Cork Collection, consists of 32 artworks and is kindly on loan from Paul & Aileen Finucane.
The belief underlying The Collection is that art exhibited at Cork University Hospital can help improve the experience of people here, many of whom are going through times of great stress and anxiety.
Majella O’Neill Collins is the spark that ignited this collection 20 years ago, when she spent anxious months wandering the corridors of this hospital while her brother lay in intensive care.
As an artist, she sought solace in the arts. One dark night, she swore that if her brother made a recovery she would donate a painting to the hospital.
