Eabha Cleary, a visual artist from Bray, Co. Wicklow, graduated from Printmaking and Contemporary Practice at the Limerick School of Art and Design in 2023.
Currently practicing between Berlin and Ireland. As well as printmaking, Eabha also works with photography and moving image.
She explores themes of class, the effects of post-capitalism, and globalist commodification, considering their environmental, cultural, political, and personal impacts.
Drawing inspiration from anarchist philosophies and ancient Irish folklore, she embraces uncertainty, empathy, and the ‘otherworld’, aiming to challenge and offer fresh perspectives on the world we inhabit.
Since graduating, Eabha has been a resident artist at GlogauAIR, Berlin, and has participated in group shows at Backhaus Projects, Pallas Studios, and Sailor’s Home.
She has contributed to projects such as "On Not Knowing," a collaborative video screened in June 2023 at the On Not Knowing conference at Glasgow School of Art, and ‘Focail na Mbán’, a book written by Manchán Magan featuring female artists.
