I cannot believe it is time for my MA Graduate Exhibition!!

I have spent the last 12 months doing an MA in Creative Practice at the Centre for Creative Arts and Media, GMIT, Galway. It is a very intense course but I have really enjoyed the experience and feel very grateful for it.

GMIT Art Students Exhibit Diverse Works To Public

MA:18 Graduate Exhibition opens Culture Night 2018 – Friday the 21st of September at 7pm, at the Connacht Tribune Print Works, Galway City. It opens daily until the 30th of September from 11am to 6 pm. All are welcome.

I definitely recommend watching this video of the artist KAWS  –  KAWS went from a skater kid doing graffiti around New York City to illustrating the beloved animated series Doug to creating instantly recognizable pop art that gained visibility the world over. The artist, painter, designer and toymaker details how he linked with Nigo and Pharrell in Japan, collaborated with Jordan and Uniqlo for sold-out capsules, and created motifs that elevated fine art into the cultural zeitgeist.

Check out the video piece documenting my newest work Entropy.

This exhibition is supported by the Arts Council’s Arts and Disability Connect Scheme managed by Arts & Disability Ireland. 

A big thank you to photographer Corinne Beattie for documenting my newest work Entropy for me. I’m so happy with her photographs, she did an amazing job.
