Description
About artist: Originally from Donegal, Irish artist and poet Maria Noonan McDermott now lives and works from her studio in Kinlough, Co. Leitrim.
Heavily influenced by the impressionist movement, her work focuses on the study of light and form in Irish landscapes. With a love of folklore and story-telling, Noonan McDermott's influences lie in rural Ireland, it is in these magical places that share a colloquial history where stories and the people are often ingrained into the landscape.
In my artistic career, I qualified and worked in the Fashion industry before returning to Art College to study Fine Art at The University of Ulster. To date, I have participated in 25 solo exhibitions and numerous group exhibitions, both nationally and Internationally.
My work has always been inspired by a deep connection with the natural environment, the beautiful rugged Irish landscape with its endlessly changing skies and dramatic seas. I am equally fascinated by the people that the land holds so tightly and am firmly bound in kinship with their poetic writing, their stories and soulful lyrics.
To date, I have produced three books of Art and Poetry, which have recently been acquired by the Donegal Library board and are now available to view and loan in the local libraries and the County Library. I am also honoured to have my poem, 'Winter Tapestry' selected by Alan Hayes and co-editor Nuala O’Conor, included in - Washing Windows III: Irish Women Write Poetry published by Arlen House on May 1st 2023.
As an artist, I am constantly evolving and adapting. Over the years, I have worked in collaboration with organisations, other writers, artists, curators and gallery directors ensuring my growth in skills, reputation and confidence.
My paintings are represented by galleries all around Ireland. They are also held in private and corporate collections throughout Ireland, the UK and in locations across Europe and America.
