Falling Into The Sky
Falling Into The Sky is a visual collaborative adventure in which I work alongside Bernadette Burns, Nicola Kelly, Tess Leak and Gana Roberts. Working across familiar and unfamiliar platforms including drawing, painting, ceramics, book making and installation our artwork represents a journey into uncharted territories. It is informed using intuitive, task related methodologies to develop a body of work that could not have been anticipated at the outset.
The title references a phrase from John Banville’s novel, Ghosts, which we use as a metaphor for groundlessness and as a kind of leap of the imagination.
Within this framework my practice continues to be informed by concerns of migration and exclusion.
