Sarah O'Brien (b. 1980)
Sarah O’Brien lives and works in Kinsale, Co. Cork and whose paintings interrogate materiality and the physical engagement we have with our everyday surroundings. Her urgent, abstract works are often built up layer by layer, through different incarnations, and employ a diverse mix of materials. Her recent exhibitions include shows at Parnell Square, Dublin; Sirius Arts Centre, Cobh; and Garter Lane Arts Centre, Waterford. She is represented by Berlin Opticians Gallery, Dublin.
