Description
About artist: Anne Martin Walsh, MFA, Ba Hons (1st class) in Art, is a multi-disciplinary artist whose work is rooted in landscape and landscape rituals that question ideas of gender through the lens of archaeological, historical, religious, and spiritual practices. She interrogates her own sense of place and how we, as humans have left our mark on the earth through the ages. Central to these works are, themes of sexual and cultural identity that relate to our natural environment. She has been awarded many residencies, the latest of which are; the Cahir Arts Studio Residency Award from South Tipperary Arts Office for 2022/23, and Cill Rialaig Artists Retreat, September, 2023. She received an ArtLinks Bursary from WCC Arts Department in 2020 and 2022 and the Agility Award 2022 and 2024 from the Arts Council of Ireland. Anne was chosen to be part of the MAKE/Curate Programme with WAC and the Arts Department of WCC for 2023/24. Her work has been shown nationally and internationally. Solo shows include: A MIND’S EYE, 2023, My Bones are Creaking Hawthorn, 2022, NATURE COLLATED, 2021, and VIBRATION. Embracing a Higher Connection to Our Planet, 2020.
