Art-Making
My artistic practice has encompassed sculpture, installation, photography, video, collage, and artist’s books. Following an extended hiatus, my recent projects include an experimental play entitled The Entangled Museum, lecture performances, collage, and mixed media prints, in tandem with a cross-genre book entitled The Shape of Silence. I am currently working on cloch: 42 words for stone, a body of mixed media and video work engaging with language and landscape as intertwined post/colonial topographies. This work relates to my hybrid book in progress, Between Language [working title].
I have exhibited and performed my work in solo and group exhibitions in Ireland, the UK, Germany, Italy, the Netherlands, and the US at venues including Temple Bar Gallery, Dublin; Aachener Kunstverein, Germany; Crawford Municipal Art Gallery, Cork, The Globe Gallery, Newcastle, UK; Mehrwert e.v., Aachen; Wexford Arts Center, Wexford; Basement Gallery, Dundalk, Ireland; Art Hive, Cork, Bilderhaus Bornemann Galerie, Germany; Outpost Venice, Italy; Lavitt’s Quay Gallery, Cork; 1430 Contemporary, Portland, and the Center for Contemporary Art and Culture, Portland. My artist’s books are held in the New York Public Library art collection.
