Artist Statement

I do art mostly because I want to forget about the universe, everybody. I want be in my little world (me and me again). But when I lock the doors in my little world and pick up paintbrush, pencil, chisel and observed the space around me, I see always something different and I get so thrilled that I work as fast as I can with the passion that I forget myself (I don’t think anymore, I don’t feel my body). After the work (when I stop), I realize that I didn’t existed…

Shows and Exhibitions

Press Release “8 > 20”
An Exhibition of visual art by Students of The D.I.T. 17th -19th January 2008, @ The Back Loft, La Cathedral Studios, 7/8 Augustine Street.
“8 > 20” is a vibrant and engaging exhibition featuring the work of emerging artist students from The Fine Art Department at Dublin Institute of Technology. The exhibition highlights the dynamic interests and visual explorations of these 28 students who are in their third year of arts practice. The exhibition addresses ideas of communication, control, identity, culture and social awareness and offers valuable insight into the visual discourses and concerns of these emerging artists along with the opportunity to witness the professional progression of this group of students. With work being expressed through the means of various disciplines and visual languages, “8 > 20” is the first group show of these 28 students whose individual investigations are quite varied yet connected by common themes.

This exhibition is produced by the student group and is an opportunity to see the best of emerging talent in Fine Art today.

Exhibited in Art and Design week in Montjoy Square Dublin Institute of Technology 11th-14th March, 2008.
I would love to do portraits from order in future.
