Siobhan Collins (Residency & Exhibition)

Siobhán is a visual artist living in Cork City. She works across several mediums, including pencil, charcoal, watercolour and oils. Her work foregrounds play, materiality and embodiment. Her drawings and paintings are primarily figurative and explorative.

During her time in Triskel Sample Project Space, Siobhán will do a practice-based research residency in contemporary portraiture. She will engage the public by drawing and painting the faces of people living in Cork. She will create approximately 40 portraits over the course of 4 weeks, make space for critical reflection, and partake in an artist talk during her solo exhibition.

The portrait studies will vary in duration from 15 minutes to 2 hours.
