Nationality: Irish
Education

Course MA Fine Art: 2008/2009
College Byam Shaw School of Fine Art, University of the Arts, London

Course BA (Hons) Fine Art: 2002/2007
In the studio, I get completely lost in the moment. I forget time, I forget myself. At hand is a plethora of materials including steel, wood, styrofoam, expanding foam, rubber, stones as well as a collection of different found objects including bicycle tyres, car parts, various bits from vacuum cleaners, spin dryers, chairs, wooden banisters and a range of stretchy fabrics, including different coloured spandex, powernetting and sheet latex.
I bring these different materials together, and through various processes, they are transformed. I try to develop processes that are unpredictable and not entirely controllable so that the outcome is a surprise. In this respect, the reading of the work is in its making and I’m fascinated by the apparent ability of materials and objects to retain a temporal quality of process. To some extent, through the making process, the work discovers itself.
My current studio focus is developing processes that will generate structure. I have been enveloping objects and different materials in stretchy fabrics. Through the interplay of found objects, material and fabric, work is produced beyond preconception.
The transformations move towards the unknown and the work has a non-identity, fugitive quality. There is also a sense of the absurd in the work inspired by writers such as Samuel Beckett, Flann O’Brien and Luigi Pirandello. The found object suggests a narrative but it is also considered as a historical artefact suspended in the potential fluid movement of the fabric; an interesting tension which I plan to develop further.

I am interested in how the mind sees and how the hand paints, how images are selected from the surrounding world and from memories, and how these fragments coalesce and collide and form new “things”. Scrambled categories and shifting viewpoints suggest a different kind of visual attention, a wide-open field of awareness. Negotiating form through material requires that I follow the logic of the paint, sometimes battling with the materials before the elusive image emerges. I often use previous paintings as a starting point, over painting and revealing selective passages that in turn suggest a new structure. I cannot presume to know the form before making the painting but I can try to be on hand when the barriers lift.

Her work has been shown at The Wellcome Collection, London, SPACE:Gallery, London, Goethe Institute, Washington DC and others
I am interested in the various states of consciousness between being awake, dreaming, sleeping and unconsciousness.
Drawing serves as a starting point of my work and research. I realised that within the medium of drawing I could find a lot of the issues I am dealing with.
The mental state when making drawings is most commonly one of total absorption, a withdrawing and removal of attention from anything other than the drawing; the sense of draw, meaning to extract. The world is reduced to a piece of paper and becomes a depository of thought.

Born: Barrow-in-Furness, UK
2001 – 2005 BA (HONS) Fine Art Degree, 1st Class, University College for the Creative Arts at Canterbury. (Formerly known as KIAD)
The objective for the use of measurements as part of my aesthetic is to start thinking beyond the picture as an autonomous thing and to start thinking about the gallery as a whole.
My work uses the architecture of the gallery as the support, it is not about a critique of an architectural structure but an interest in the phenomenology of a person’s relational position to its space, art-objects presented and the interconnections between the art-objects, and their relationships to the viewer, and the gallery as a unit. The formula: painted object + measurements in pencil + white walls + active spectator + gallery = one unit, a single whole.

My practice is directed by thinking. I try to think about my historical situation through the perspective and methods of a painter. Concerns about representation and translation are reflected in all of my projects.

Currently lives and works in London
Portugal, Lisbon, 1984
I am interested in consciousness, awareness, speechlessness.
I work mainly with Painting, Photography, Video.
Painting is figurative, colour is the corner stone to the atmosphere presented.
Photography is a medium that permits meaning and form to blend indivisibly.
Videos are made to be seen as a moving painting, a photograph sculpted.
Her work is now shown at the Jorge Shirley Gallery, Lisbon (www.jorgeshirley.com).
Documentary «Foule Immobile», collaboration with Merlin James and Mummery+Schnelle Gallery, London, 2009.
