It's the second last day for The 5th Wheel Element Project at the The Dock Carrick-on-Shannon, Co. Leitrim. There has been great support through-out the process and it's been much appreciated.
I can't believe it's nearly a year since I posted here. What a busy time.
More catching up to do again soon once the winter sets in. For now I must dash again.
Have a great weekend y'all!
My best.
Kathy

My Art work

Artist Statement by Kathy O’ Leary

Kathy is a multidisciplinary visual artist. Her studio-based work reflects how she collects and collates imagery.

She examines form, line and colour, which become abstract, often sculptural layers.

This helps her to conceptualize the idea in a way that reflects the layers of changing culture, society, history, geology and politics.

Employing the abstract space to create a pliable structure for intuition, improvisation and chance.

These have become her methods for navigating the blurry terrain of memory and imagination.

Kathy traces and retracing paths, mapping serves as a metaphor for searching, an implication of the unknown in wide, open spaces, and a trace of how we see where we've been.
