Myself and writer/critic Michaele Cutaya were recently awarded a 1 month joint residency at Interface Inagh, Connemara in 2024. For the residency we will be focusing on the local forest rewilding project and how it ties in with our own interest in landscape and ideas around superficiality, rewilding, the need for describing and noticing the world around us and how Science Fiction can be used as a tool to comment on our own situation and the future. The residency is funded by the Arts Council and features Irish and international artists.
I am also delighted to have been awarded a 2023 Visual Arts Bursary from the Irish Arts Council. I am incredibly grateful for their support of my practice over the years and it means that I can continue to make ambitious work. I really look forward to getting stuck in making new work, which will include ceramics, a new departure for me.
