In 1997, I was walking back to college in Barcelona after dropping my son off at school. I was waiting to cross the road, thinking about art, as you do, when everything became very bright, and I realised there was no separation between my body and the world around me. I remember looking around, wondering if anyone else was aware of this, and then crossing the street, staring at my feet intently to try to understand that they were the same as the zebra crossing I was walking across. It was very exciting, then faded away.

Based in Kinsale, Co. Cork, Ireland, early work consists of large, abstract paintings that express a presence with epic implications, the conceptualisation of my work in the late 1990s was based on ideas of representation, a site-specific approach through the 2000s explored cultural perception, a return to painting in the 2010s looked at fragmentation and recent developments in written, textile and digital artwork engage a pan-disciplinary approach to making work about our post-representational technological reality.
