Professional Statement

Siobhán (BA. Fine Arts, NCAD graduate 2006) is interested in creating interactive arts experiences. A primary concern is how to make arts more accessible and relevant to the experience of the audience, often by inviting them to actively engage in an aspect of the process of creation.

She regularly delivers workshops in academic (e.g. NUI Maynooth, St. Patrick's College Drumcondra, Trinity College Dublin) and informal education settings (e.g. The Digital Hub, Cinemagic, CDYSB). 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).

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.

Parallel to present contextual projects, Siobhan is working on ‘Experiments in Encounter and Escape’ which investigates varying modes of perception and the experiences that influence and inform sensory perception.
