I am a creative producer, educator and multidisciplinary artist working across print, drawing, sculpture, projection, sound and moving image. My practice explores spectrality, grief, folklore and the ways memory lingers through stories, bodies, materials and land. They That Sorrow / Lucht an Dobróin draws on Irish mourning traditions, particularly the figures of the banshee and the bleeding tree, to create an immersive installation. Hair, flax, branches, image and voice become carriers of loss and transformation. I engage with these materials ritually through acts of gathering, knotting, binding, grinding, teasing and compression—gestures that recall spellwork, folk ritual and mourning rites. The forms hover between apparition and trace, emerging as fragile, ephemeral and unsettled presences. Through this work, I invite viewers into a haunted landscape where personal grief and collective folklore remain deeply entangled, asking what lingers when loss becomes part of the land itself.
