As a visual artist I often adopt an engaged approach to research, employing interviews and other consultative methods to examine site and to involve others in answering questions. I am interested in the slippage between so-called ‘common’ and expert knowledge where vernacular narratives interact with or contradict those of history, science and the media.
My work encompasses audio-visual work, photography and collaborative texts in installation.
I occasionally write responses to other artists’ works which can be found on my blog. I am a co-founder and board member of The Market Studios with Claire Behan and Deirdre Morrissey.
