Keeping an open mind is the key to starting each new encounter, project or artwork with fresh eyes.
Over the years I have established and developed working relationships with people and organisations across Ireland, of many different cultures and backgrounds. This has fed back into my practice as a visual artist.
Helping people – young and old, disabled and able-bodied, with learning difficulties or without – discover their “voice” through creative dialogue, has given me a second working life as a practicing artist.
In this aspect of my work especially, no two people are ever the same.
