NIAMH MCCANN

Niamh McCann was born in Dublin, Ireland where she lives and works

Niamh McCann’s varied and playful practice, which includes sculpture, installation, painting and video, explores philosophical conundrums through seemingly random visual juxtapositions and spatial relationships, looking toward themes of travel, globalization and urbanization within very particular social and political contexts
