Welcome to my blogsite.  I'm an Irish artist, living in Dublin and working in both 2D (Stamp-cells and drawings) and 3D (assemblages). Lately I've been working with the elemental medium of light, which has led (excuse the pun) to some experiments with electronics.

​The anthropogenic influence on our own environment is a central theme to a lot of this work. T
he materials convey the message I wish to get across- that we need to look at the things we use and throw away and the consequences of our actions. 

Some other themes that crop up and keep the fire lit- space exploration, quantum physics, the possibility of a multiverse, the media and its cyber-offspring the internet, artificial intelligence, psychiatry- all provide inspiration.

​Keep on keepin' on.

​Seán O'Neill
