Stop One: Subset at Stirrup Lane

Our first stop is ‘Horse Boy’, one of Dublin’s most iconic murals. Painted by Subset, this mural became the subject of debate around planning legislation when reports emerged that Dublin City Council had ordered the piece to be removed.

Here we talk to Subset about the mural and the process of creating art in the capital.
