Fundit.ie raising money for "Self portrait" exhibition

I am happy to announce that my project at Fund it has been successfully finished.

---

I was raising money toward the costs for my two forthcoming exhibitions in Cork Institute of Technology - Gallery Wandesford Quay in Cork between 24th July - 14th August 2013 and touring to the Limerick School of Art and Design Gallery in Limerick at the end of 2013. As a winner of Manifest Award 2012 - Kinsale Art Festival - I was awarded these two exhibition. The judges were: Patrick Murphy (RHA), Trish Brennan (CCA / CIT) and Mike Fitzatrick (curator of Manifest LIT).

In my show “Self Portrait” I present works based on my family’s old photograph collection. In these paintings I am not analysing my roots, or displaying sentiment about the past. Rather my intention is to reflect my melancholic mood and some feelings of hopelessness and emptiness due to the passage of time. The death theme is extremely close in my work.
