Visual Artists To Watch Out For: Chanelle Walshe

Having graduated from NCAD in 2010, Chanelle Walshe has gone on to have a number of exhibitions in Ireland’s finest galleries. In 2015, she was the recipient of the Thomas Dammann Award, and also completed a studio residency at the Royal Hibernian Academy. Both unsettling and compelling, her work centres on her interest in organs, flesh, soil, ‘divine intelligence’ and the healing process. Looking at the human body and the earth, she has worked from pelvic bones, ribcages, hearts and lungs, and her research often takes place at universities and medical museums. Currently her work is focused on the human brain. For more on Chanelle, go to https://www.chanellewalshe.com/
