A religious Tabernacle shrouded in gold filigree detail, mostly untouched in an abandoned church. There’s a fairy tied to a cross of twigs shoved inside, adorning a crown of gold and moss. She is beautiful and innocent, but now lies dead.
A project inspired by my thesis about the Witch Trials (14-1600AD) driven by Christianity’s desire for a pure world which lead to the deaths of innocent women. I was inspired by the beautiful Christian artistry such as crosses and fine gold details adorned with jewels. The beautiful exterior clouds the true harrowing historical events that went on behind closed doors.
This project symbolises the contrast of outward expression VS true identity, historical recurrence and patriarchal power.










My thesis explored the controversial Witch Trials from a feminist perspective. Which peaked in 1400s Europe - 1600s America.
I cover the multiple, reoccurring times in history where innocent, educated or powerful women were executed under the guise of “witchcraft” allegations.
My research had me stunned to discover the immense power and influence religion had in orchestrating these executions. Although the fear of witches was real, the desire for a “pure society” was mostly used as a tool for misogynists to eradicate women who were a threat to the patriarchy.

I’m an Irish, Dublin based artist with a passion for painting, film making, model making and design!
I mostly work freelance painting for companies or individuals, completing works such as murals and pet portrait commissions!
I’m a very open-minded and adventurous person who likes to explore all mediums and subjects. My work tends to be brightly coloured, eye catching and sometimes conveying deep emotions that contrast its bright, cheerful appearance. I like to find beauty in the little things in life, drawing most of my inspiration from nature, the human experience and dreams. Covering everything from the tangible to the surreal.
