This piece evokes a dreamlike landscape, where the layers of colour and texture suggest both the permanence of the land and the fleeting nature of time. The golden hues hint at warmth and nostalgia, while the stormy sky above speaks of change and transformation. It feels like a place remembered, yet always shifting in the mind's eye.
When we speak of ephemerality, we step into an infinite landscape—one where every moment is fleeting, every image is in transition, and everything that lives is ultimately consumed by time. My work is an exploration of this impermanence, capturing the transient beauty of the Irish landscape, where light, mist, and memory intertwine.
Through mixed media and encaustic, I layer and obscure, revealing fragments of stories—flashes of golden light on a river’s surface, the fading glow of a path once travelled, a moss-covered tree standing as both witness and participant in the passage of time. Like the ever-changing sky over Killarney National Park, my work shifts between presence and disappearance, solid and fluid, past and present.
Having studied printmaking at the Royal College of Art, my approach is deeply rooted in materiality, allowing each piece to evolve organically. Encaustic’s wax layers echo the way we remember—some moments clear, others blurred, altered, or lost. In this way, my art does not seek to preserve the ephemeral, but rather to honor it, embracing the beauty in what is passing, fragile, and ultimately, essential.
