Island Group Exhibition with Ceadogan Rugmakers Timed Auction 10 Jan - 2pm 5 Feb 2023

14 10 Mary O’Connor MOTU Hand tufted in pure wool. Unique. Signed on label on reverse. 55 by 55in. (140 by 140cm.) Mary O’Connor makes paintings, screen prints, and large-scale wall murals influenced by the many vast landscapes she has encountered. These works are flat and gestural with recurrent shapes and forms. They are made using bold abstract geometric designs and a strong colour pallet. “Throughout my life I have experienced much flux and flow moving from the UK, New Zealand to Belize, Central Asia and finally back to Ireland. There are a lot of floating and moving shapes in my work. Our planet is constantly moving; we sit on continents, these continents themselves are on plates, plates that are constantly moving. These small shifts, over millions of years can move mountains, can separate the land from itself. Moving small amounts at a time, change may happen slowly. Little steps can move mountains.” €1,500-€2,000 Click here for more images and to bid on this lot10
