ABOUT

Antoinette is an artist/maker originally from Limerick, now living in Galway on the West Coast of Ireland. 

​

Antoinette's work crosses disciplines but primarily involves collage, embroidery and textile art. 

​

The works are visual snapshots – visual expressions and responses to some of the many fragmented observations and occurrences of daily life.  Inspiration can come from whatever captures her imagination on any given day – the lyrics of a song; a memory recalled; a pattern spotted in a rural (where she lives) or the urban landscape (where she works) ; craft and handwork; the complex feelings related to the juggle of her life as an artist/ mother/educator;

words and symbols and references from art history.

​

Her approach is intuitive, and process driven.

​

Alongside her own art, Antoinette teaches art & design to adult learners in Galway City.
