I am a visual artist, surreal poet, practicing hermit and country mouse. I work with the themes of home, nature, love, and the self. My practice links together the spiritual and natural world, with an underlining narrative of innocence and the uncanny. My work embraces the Japanese aesthetic of Wabi-Sabi, 'Nothing lasts, nothing is finished and nothing is perfect.' I am inspired by the primitive and see beauty in the broken. Born in County Limerick, Ireland; I graduated in 2014, from Limerick School of Art and Design (LSAD) where I studied Fine Art Printmaking and Contemporary Practice (BA Hons). I am an exhibiting artist at Cill Rialaig Arts Centre. I am currently detached from the art world. |
“So therefore I dedicate myself, to my art, my sleep, my dreams, my labours, my sufferance's,
My loneliness, my unique madness, my endless absorption and hunger
Because I cannot dedicate myself to any fellow being.”
-Jack Kerouac
