Based in Ireland, I am a full time artist, my practice is varied and includes pinhole photography, film, object making, sound and performance. The common thread motivating my work is exploring the creation of an architecture of trust and respect, in the external and inner environments.
Currently I am working in various photography media, including pinhole photogrphy workshops and exhibiting /performing in sound composition and performance and photography. |
Sound practiceContemporary composition by organisation and arrangement of noise and sound using field recordings, found sounds and self made instruments.
Areas of practiceField recordings and found sounds assembled, treated and arranged in the studio environment.
Self made instruments assembled from a variety of "everyday" objects and parts, fitted with microphones, physically plucked, bowed or stroked, treated and amplified in live performances or sessions. These are a combination of improvised and semi-arranged pieces, often in groups with other "sound artists" including: | ||

Photography
“Real truth lies, if anywhere, not in facts, but in nuance”. John Le Carré. I work with three photography formats , pinhole, time lapse and the moving image. By making my own pinhole cameras, I can explore different framing and focal distances to create the image I am seeking. All of my practice seems to incorporate time as an essential element, whether it be time lapse or long exposure or the moving image. Using self-made 120mm film pinhole cameras I choose to focus on long exposure photography in order to record the nuance or atmosphere of the chosen location. Remaining with the camera during the long exposures allows a thorough examination of the location and its' features, prompting new directions or interpretations. Potentially each photograph I take can become a mini residency. |

Performance
In performance my practice is motivated by my inner psyche, shaped by stories both inherited and self constructed through the physical realities of human form. I hope to create engagement through the creation of trust and respect in the collective experience of other practitioners and onlookers. Together, through witnessed actions and shared presence, we author new narratives rooted in the immediacy of mutual experience. Performance is not an act, it is a real time negotiation with presence, endurance and the friction between the inner and physical self to the external environment. |
