Artist Statement
I am a digital media artist from Dublin. I work as a lecturer and practise-based researcher in the Interface, art and technology research centre in the School of Art and Design, University of Ulster. My main research area at Interface is ‘Art in Contested spaces’. I am looking at various types of contested spaces for example: man versus nature, human versus machine, public/private, local/glocal. Through my projects, I explore the links between technology and our vision of the world. I am looking at the control mechanisms that are used to keep us feeling safe and the ones that do not. Usually my work incorporates physical interfaces with a mixture of sound, video, 3D and electronics. My work has been shown at the Montreal Film and New Media festival, Transmediale, Exit Art and Location One Gallery, New York.
