Contents May Shift During Transit
Solo exhibition – Working Artist Studios, Ballydehob, Co.Cork May 2026 Contents May Settle in Transit marks a significant shift within my practice.

The setting itself was extraordinary — the generosity of many of the Greek people, the light, the sea, the rhythm of the city. Like most residencies, however, the lived reality was more complex than the postcard version. But back to the […]
