Midlands Man Has His Own Take On Classic Piece Of Art

A midlands artist has put his own spin on a famous Leonardo Da Vinci design, in a bid to raise cancer awareness.

Clara man Vincent Devine's new painting, 'The Vitruvian: Uncovering the Layers of Cancer,' will highlight the impact of cancer on the body.

The piece is in collaboration with researchers at University Campus Dublin, and will be on display at a festival in the O'Brien Centre on campus tomorrow.

Mr Devine joined co-lead of the All-Island Cancer Research Institute and Prof. of Cancer Biology at UCD Professor Liam Gallagher on Midlands Today with Will Faulkner to discuss the piece:
