This foundation was built upon with an MFA in painting at the University of Colorado (Boulder) and a Master of Art from the Chelsea College of Art and Design (London, UK).
Much of Holmes’ early work included sculpture and installation, most notably a series about ideal beauty making of monsters made out of Barbie dolls. Subsequently, her focus shifted towards paintings/drawings of houses with decorative patterns and dual façade houses. “I love the shapes of houses, Colonial, Craftsman, Victorian, Pennsylvania Dutch, these complex shapes inspire me to picture their foundation. I imagine a counter shape that can balance and support the house above the ground. A logical shape that is worthy of the heavy browed dormer windows and the wide smiling porches. These augmented houses can’t sit still in the landscape. They travel through oceans, Bluetooth, rain, solar wind, iClouds, radio waves, encryption...”
Austin Ivers - www.austinivers.com
Austin make digital (durational and still) objects, film and installation work. His concerns have developed from looking at the intersection of popular culture and the distinctive visual culture which emerges at times of high public anxiety such as the Cold War, the Oil/Nuclear Crises of the 70’s and 80’s and any time of great technological innovation, acceleration and development. Recent solo shows include ‘The Earth Dies Screaming’ at 126 (2021) and ‘Threads’ (2020) a major commission for Galway City of Culture, which include a solo exhibition at The Dock. The commission was a consideration of the relationship between the aesthetic of power and the threat of nuclear annihilation. It included new film, installation and photography, mediating a parallel film programme which underpinned the context and subjects of the work and specially commissioned essays by writers Ian Maleney, Cathy Sweeney, Patrick McCabe and Joanne Laws. Work from this commissioned exhibition was purchased for the Arts Council Collection, and exhibited at The RHA.

Christopher Clery - instagram.com/violet_psychopomp
“I graduated in fine art printmaking and contemporary practice from Limerick school of art and design in 2019. I am currently a member of the Limerick Printmakers where I create work and enjoy being in the printmaking community. I explore my perception and understanding of sexuality, masculinity and the male gender within my work. I focus on etching, silkscreen, photography and collage processes. I express my own sexuality and idea of masculinity in my work and how it fits in the world. My practice is esoteric by nature and is inspired by depictions of religion, Greek art, culture, and mythology. I create imagery that is depicting male figures within tropical pastoral settings that have been corrupted and I have recently been exploring hellscape imagery and representation of sin and body/animal splicing to convey my outlook on queer life as a millennial .

Elinor O'Donovan - www.elinorodonovan.com
Elinor O’Donovan is a multidisciplinary artist based in Cork, Ireland. Her practice references internet memes, cartoons, and film and tv tropes. Through playful sculpture, collage, drawing and installations, she teases out the ways that familiarity with common tropes in popular culture allows us to form cognitive shortcuts, influencing how we understand the world around us. Drawing on theatre set-design, she examines the dichotomies of front-stage/back-stage, public/private space, and audience/performer. She often chooses to leave the raw materials of her work exposed, questioning what value remains when a work of art is sketchy and unformed. O’Donovan received her BA from Edinburgh College of Art in 2019, and has since participated in residencies and exhibitions in Ireland, the UK and Europe.

Gráinne Bath Enright - www.gbathenright.com
Gráinne is an Irish Artist, Designer and Illustrator based in Dublin. Gráinne obtained a BA Hons Degree in ‘Design for Stage and Screen’ from IADT, Dún Laoghaire and worked in film and theatre before gradually gravitating towards her own fine art prints and illustration projects. With a love for hand drawn detail, her work is informed by story and symbolism. She now works from both her Dublin studio and on location. Following her degree specialising in Production Design, Gráinne worked on over 20 productions such as The Wexford Opera, Facebook’s Summer Event and The National Wax Museum Plus. Gráinne has specialised in the design and illustration of large scale theatrical cloths and headed the Scenic Cloth Team for the much loved Gaiety Panto for a number of years. Whilst working as a scenic artist, Gráinne continued to produce her own detailed works, realising her first collection of prints inspired by wild things and sense of place in 2017. Gráinne’s transition from working in film and theatre to full-time artist and illustrator was gradual but inevitable, helped along by the events of 2020. Included in the many illustration ventures Gráinne has worked on are projects for both Bicester and Kildare Villages, Laura Kennedy’s ‘Second Self’ podcast and Katie Kims new ‘Hour of the Ox’ album. Gráinne’s fine art pieces have come to encompass her exploration of the natural world and urban environments with an enthusiasm for the connections we have to these places. She often takes her sketchbook outdoors; capturing buildings and the natural world on location which allows for a freedom in the drawing that cannot be captured in the studio. Inspired by history and folklore, the detailed marks invite you in to discover something new within the piece on each viewing. In 2022, Gráinne exhibited for the first time at the ‘MART Studio Members Exhibition’ and at her first solo pop-up exhibition, ‘DWELLINGS’ at the Riverbank Arts Centre in Newbridge.
Jennifer Trouton - www.jennifertrouton.com
Jennifer Trouton is an Irish artist who works within the discipline of Painting. Formally her work appropriates the tropes of traditional still life painting to create contemporary representations that subtly express ideas around gender, class and identity within Irish history. Her work combines an interest in the mythological and historical with the personal stories and meta-narratives of women. Trouton’s most recent body of work, One of Many, considers the women affected by societal and religious attempts to suppress reproductive rights in Ireland. Her large-scale installations combining paint, embroidery, historical artefacts and wallpapers, highlight how, regardless of continued attempts to reduce the influence and autonomy of women, women still accessed the tools necessary to control their own reproductive destinies. In many cases, they found the objects of their own emancipation in the domestic spaces to which they were assigned. Since graduating from the University of Ulster in the mid-nineties Trouton’s work has been extensively exhibited both Nationally and Internationally. Throughout her career Trouton’s work has garnered numerous awards, including the Golden Fleece award in 2016, the Clare Morris Open Exhibition, Adjudicators Award, the RHA Annual Exhibition, Keating/McLaughlin award.

Rebecca Bradley - www.rebeccabradleyartist.com
Rebecca Bradley is an Irish artist living and working in Cork, Ireland. Her painting practice explores ideas about landscape, abstraction and place-hood. Bradley works with paint and found materials to explore ideas about our encounters with landscape and place. Central to her exploration is a concern for space, light, mark making and the material substance of her subjects. The effects of erosion, accumulation, growth and recycling find expression in Bradley’s use of found materials such as grit, ash and sand with paint and mediums that render blobs of semi organic detritus and smooth veils of paint alongside one another. Recent work focuses on Edgelands, as places where the man-made and organic converge creating material & conceptual peculiarities for interrogation in paint, sculpture and performance. Bradley holds an MA (Art and Process) & BA Fine Art, Crawford College of Art, BA Sociology (Kingston University).

A body in which human soul live in a complete freedom stripped from all false teachings. A body which is “breaking down areas hardened by perspective of the Ego”. Primal body. “As an artist my main aim is making the subconscious conscious and bringing it to the light. We live in an era where most of us are showing the best part of ourselves, the most beautiful parts (a wonderful Kingdom of Selfies), and I am showing those, hidden, dark, disturbing parts. By covering my face and hiding my identity, I become no one; and by becoming no one, I have become everyone. By disfiguring my face, covering my eyes I am allowing my Primordial Self to step out from the darkness. I am reconnecting all over again with my true Self.” – says the Ljilja. She has exhibited and performed internationally including shows at Alte Münze, Berlin (2022); Mart Gallery, Dublin (2022); Ebensperger Gallery, Berlin (2021); Lethal Amounts Gallery, LA (2019); Body Art Ritual Festival, Berlin (2019); and Reykjavik International Film Festival, Reykjavik (2018).

Tony O'Loughlin
Limerick School of Art and Design (LSAD) 1980- 2010 Professional Graphic designer 2010 Fulltime printmaker /artist It comes as no surprise after working as a professional Graphic Designer for many years that it should influence my work as an artist/printmaker. When I started as a full time artist/ printmaker it was like I was returning to a personal world I had put on hold for years. The freedom to think for myself and not for a client was overwhelming. Ideas long stored up in my head rushed to be free. After a year or so of solitude I realised I needed to mix again with other artists, to have productive conversations and ideas. Joining Limerick Printmaker’s group and studio helped me tremendously, with group shows and collaborations. Having my first solo in 2017 was a great achievement. Since then I have had many collaborations and shown work internationally. My practice explores the boundaries we create around ourselves. As long as I can remember I have always been aware of the way we treat each other and the environment. Fundamentally it’s an ambiguous attitude often mixed with a good portion of love and hate, it’s in our nature to be this way. The work randomly jumps between social and environmental issues, it depends on what strikes me at the time. My observations allow me to transform my thoughts on this into the division of space that depicts mental and physical states. I look to explore this spatial awareness by using semi abstract patterns and organic shapes as symbolic metaphors. I will use whatever I have at hand to develop an idea and often this dictated what medium I will work in. I have a preference for screen-printing as this is my favourite ‘hands on’ traditional method of working. As technology develops I have a great interest in the digital process and virtual artwork, being the future. Having said that, I am very conscious of not allowing the computer to do the thinking, I still want it to be just another tool. Each piece of work I undertake often requires a new approach and medium. In the end, the work is always an emotional response.
