Professional Statement
<p>Siobhán (BA. Fine Arts, NCAD graduate 2006) is interested in creating interactive arts experiences.

She has also collaborated on long term participatory arts and media initiatives with youth-at-risk and adult community groups including Foróige, Irish Youth Media Development, Comhairle na nÓg, Focus Ireland, NCBI (National Council for the Blind of Ireland).<br /> <br /> In 2008, Siobhán was co-awarded an Arts Council Artist in the Community Scheme bursary which is managed by Create. She also received The Marian Rollins Heritage and Education Award 2008 from The Heritage Council and INTO. Most recently she received a Travel and Training Award to participate in a residency with Disposable Film Festival 2012 in San Francisco, USA.</p>
