Artist Bio:

Ellie Cullen is an Irish artist living and working between Dublin and her studio in North Tipperary, Ireland. In 2016, she graduated from Limerick School of Art and Design having completed her Bachelors degree in Fine Art (Painting). In 2019, she graduated from the National College of Art and Design after completing her Masters degree in Design History and Material Culture.

Through the exploration of varying artistic disciplines, Cullen continuously blurs the boundaries between Fine Art and Design. She is concerned with the haptic and tactile qualities of materials and the relationship between objects and space. Her work which is provisional, opulent and sometimes dramatically decorative, is a fusion of personal fantasy, mythology and social commentary. Often, through the use of somewhat ‘garish’ ready-made materials, she reflects on the concern with the politics and psychology of identity and authorship.
