Niamh O'Connor is a Dublin born visual artist working from the Midlands of Ireland, in non objective abstraction. She is a painter, printmaker and sometimes sculptor, favouring acrylic, mixed media and encaustic.
O'Connor has exhibited both nationally and internationally , issues around personal and social history, health and recovery, housing and homelessness and pure expressionism are all areas she is inspired by and has featured in previous works and exhibitions. She is represented by several galleries across Ireland.
Of her latest series, "Fire and Ice," O'Connor states :
" It is essentially a creation of intention, process, metaphor, influence, and expression through osmosis and storytelling. A percolation of thought and response to war, weather and longing for security in restless times. "
Process leads her work to the creation of bold, yet delicate storytelling. Through the use of colour, avid mark-making and asemic script, she explores the scars of our modern-day psyche in an ever volatile world with a hopeful eye.
Niamh's works are held in private collections across Ireland, Europe and the US. You are welcome to contact Niamh directly Here: Contact Form
