I am an award-winning contemporary visual artist. I explore concepts of failure through installation using combinations of sculpture, live sound, light, moving image and kinetics. My installations involve material experiments that often operate within a live state of malfunction or instability. Underpinning the precarious nature of these works is an exploration of concepts of failure, its parameters, and its psychological and emotional values. Recent achievements: Golden Fleece Award nominee (2022); Interface Inagh Science Art Residency (2022); Arts Council England Award (2021); Leitrim Sculpture Centre Exhibition Residency (2021); A-N Artist Bursary (2020).
