Artist's Statement

My subject matter is landscape, in particular the rugged landscape of North Mayo, Sligo, the Curragh Co. Kildare and the gardens and natural forms around me.

I want to celebrate the subtlety and nuance, the sense of timelessness, strength and fragility and to convey this through intuitive abstraction, memory, emotion, mark making and movement of paint.

Using the recognised language of landscape such as horizon lines and boundaries, the paint is scraped back, reworked, layered, all the while being mindful of the tones, shapes and edges created. These elements speak to me of waves, clouds, rocks, light, shadow, colour and form.

My aim is to distill images, memories, and emotions, leaving just enough room for subjective interpretation.

Biography

Born in Co.Mayo, Grainne now lives and paints from her studio at the edge of the Curragh in Co.Kildare. She graduated with 1st class honours form The Crawford College of Art & Design in Cork in 2007. Drawing upon memory and emotion, Gráinne’s work celebrates the subtlety, nuance, timelessness and fragility of the landscape through intuitive abstraction. Her work has been shown at the Royal Hibernian Academy, Dublin, the Royal Ulster Academy, Belfast, and The Ballinglen Museum of Art where she recently won an award for her representation of the Mayo landscape. She is represented in Dublin and Belfast by Gormley’s Gallery and regularly shows in various group and juried exhibitions nationwide. Two of these works, 'Folded Land' and 'Rise Up', were recently featured as endpapers in the books 'Small Things Like These' and 'Foster', by Claire Keegan.
