Big Skygazer
Really delighted to announce my latest collaborative Public Art Commission. “Big Skygazer” a collaboration with Michael Mc Laughlin BArch (Monaru) and Lecturer in Design at Limerick School of Art and Design(TUS). This new sculptural installation will be installed in Mote Park, Co Roscommon. It will be a parametrically designed installation made from sustainable native timber. It will be the largest installation of this type in Ireland and a groundbreaking project in terms of innovation, using advanced computational design and cnc fabrication. Advanced parametric design assistance by Nigel Baldachino(Fr) Commissioned by Roscommon Co Council and Coillte. Curated by Fiona Milne (Outscape)
Infinite Light -a unique art participative light installation comes to The Linenhall Arts Centre in December.
Preparations are underway at The Linenhall Arts Centre for my new light installation -Infinite Light. This interactive project is comprised of a light box installation which takes place in a steel shipping container that will be installed outdoors in Supervalu Car Park and a light experience walk through which takes place in the Linenhall Arts Centre Theatre Space. The project is the fruition of years of research and development. I want to create a mesmerising light experience for people of all ages to enjoy in the depth of winter. Mix your own rainbow of colours, create some light mixes and see how light and colour mix together to form new colours. See into infinity and let your imagination take hold by this new innovative light experience. This participative visual art walk-through light installation allows participants to interact with colour mixing lights to experience colour and light in new ways. This educational and experiential light experience is suitable for all all ages to enjoy

Mayo Artists Bursary Award 2023
Mayo Artist Bursary Award 2023
Great to recieve The Mayo Artist Bursary for 2023. It was a great acknowledgement for my contributions to public art over the years. The bursary will be used to create case study ebook about recent participative public art projects in Offaly, Mayo, and Dublin. Looking forward to creating the book as there is a deficit of information about participative arts in Ireland.
