2013 marked the ten-year anniversary of digital arts studios, a constantly evolving, unique organisation, which supports the diverse practices of all kinds of artists working within the broad realms of art, technology and all things digital. I was featured in a retrospective publication published in December 2013

I will be presenting Garden Estate at  Land │Labour │Capital, an interdisciplinary and collaborative symposium at LCGA on 26-28 September 2013.  

The symposium is taking place during Labour and Lockout, an exhibition to mark the centenary of the 1913 Dublin Lockout, a key moment in Ireland’s industrial history when employers refused to recognise workers in an attempt to break worker solidarity and the trade union movement. Land │Labour │Capital will reflect on the relevance of 1913 for the contemporary moment and seek, through dialogue, to   foreground radical and alternative narratives for future history-making.

Pollen Studios and Gallery 27th February – 7th March 2013 

University Gallery, University of Ulster, 11th – 27th March 2013

There is continuing discussion around notions of practice based (or practice led and practice with) research, yet it all seems rather theoretical; the actual work that is produced by the researcher is not visible, or at least work is not often publicised as “based on doctoral research”. Questions arise on the legitimacy of an artwork that is produced as part of academic research. Or is it more appropriate to inquire into deeper questions regarding how a work can render its research visible, as well as asking what the most suitable platforms are to reveal the work.

Titled ‘Invisibility’, the exhibition will address issues on the visibility and invisibility of practice based research in academic and extra-academic environments. The exhibition aims at making visible the work produced by PhD researchers at the University of Ulster. Current and past practice based PhD students from Art and Design were invited to submit artworks addressing the many aspects of invisibility. The artworks displayed in the exhibition explore and interrogate not only on the visibility or invisibility of practice based research, but also the individuals understanding of invisibility and what it means in their work as both artists and academic researchers.

U.K and Ireland DAS Artist in Residence October 2012 – January 2013 

Exhibition and Artist talk January 2013 

I commenced a Four-month residency at Digital Arts Studios in Belfast with the aim of developing my project Material Authority. Through the DAS UK & Ireland Residency Program I moved into new territory, working in film as part of my research into the subversion of iconography, in particular the mutation and transformation of the flag over the course a twenty four hour period. This residency concluded with a group exhibition in DAS.
