Niamh McGuinne
Niamh McGuinne’s practice combines print, sculpture and film to create interactive installations. She also makes structures, inhabitable or often wearable, whose function is not initially clear. They have echoes of minimalism in their materiality and industrial form but are post minimalist in their handmade assembly.
They contain a myriad of possibilities with their indistinct appearance; a refuge from the unknown and invisible overload of the everyday world, where we are bombarded with signs, signals and information. In part influenced by the immersive nature of her paper conservation background, she presents an invitation to participate - either physically or imaginatively.
