I was interviewed by Angela Griffith (author of the article) from the Department of Art & Architecture, trinity College, Dublin. The conversation we had was a rare opportunity for me to discuss my work with someone who possesses such a breadth of knowledge and it offered me much food for thought regarding my work, my practice and the wider context. She has written a carefully considered and insightful piece. It is an honour indeed to see my work presented in this way and one that I am truly grateful for.
