Artist Statement:

My work explores hardness and softness, darkness and light, sadness and joy and how these opposites are not always mutually exclusive. I express this through translucencies, layering, colour and form. My work revolves around tensions, between wanting freedom and the need for structure, what we show of ourselves and what we choose to hide.

I am an Irish artist ☘️ living and working in London, UK. I graduated from Fine Art at DIT, Dublin in 2011. I have since worked in the art world in London and restarted my own creative practice in 2021.
