I am currently working on drawings which are titled “Mapping Animals”. These drawings are square format, pencil overlay on paper exploring animal markings which when abstracted become like maps.
I continue to use fine art photography in my studio practice. Most recently expanding a series of Holga Images which are concerned with “place”.
In 2017 I exhibited drawings of landscape and blind contour portraits in a solo exhibition at the Kilkenny County Council’s Art Gallery in Kilkenny Cityy. One of my photographic images from the Butler Gallery Collection was exhibited in their Collection’s Exhibition during 2017. In 2015 the exhibition based on the “Townlands” series was exhibited at the Old Market Arts Centre in Dungarvan, County Waterford and a solo exhibition photographic work selected by the Director of the Butler Gallery, Anna O’Sullivan was on exhibit at the gallery from 2nd May until the 21 of June, 2015. Two images from this exhibition have been added to the David Kronn Collection which is housed at the Irish Museum of Modern Art. Two other photographs have been added to the Butler Gallery Permanent Collection, Kilkenny, Ireland.
