Irish visual artist Rachel Doolin chats to Éadaoin Glynn about the challenge of taking the leap to become a professional artist, how materials inspire her, her slow research-based, collaborative approach and why she likes writing grant applications. Rachel graduated with a BA in Fine Art from the Crawford College of Art & Design and has received many awards, grants and residencies. Rachel's multidisciplinary approach merges art, experimentation, and ecology.  She collaborates with artists, NGOs,  community and professional organisations to create meaningful artworks in response to social and environmental issues.  In this episode Rachel talks about: Going to art college as a new mother Research in the artic Svalbard Seed Bank, the back-up for the world's seeds.   The sound of the glacier Seed research and working with Irish Seedsavers Inspiration for Heirloom Being overwhelmed with information The stories within seeds Seed Cloud recordings Seedarium, a wooden sculptural installation with a collection of donated seeds displayed encased in resin. How she preserved seeds in bioresin. Oscillithic, a collaboration with sound artist Anne Marie Deacy, based on research with Solstice Arts Centre and Dowth lands, Co. Meath. Dowth Hall megalithic passage tomb, said to be the most important megalithic find in Ireland in fifty years by archaeologist, Clíodhna Ní Lionáin Quartz was found in the tomb, which was not local to the area. Why was it there and what did it mean? Triboluminescence - quartz creates an orange glow when rubbed together. Sí in modern Irish language refers to both the megalithic mounds and the spirits believed to be connected to ancient burial sites. White quartz stones, known as 'Clocha Geala' or ‘Shining Stones' have featured prominently at many of these ancient sites.  The theory is that quartz was used  in religious ceremonies and astronomical observations.  Quartz is an oscillator of sound and is used in our current material culture in our phones, solar panels, fibre optics. Creating a sound sculpture Studio practice - a slow considered process with the journey more important than the final product A disciplined approach to work Collaboration and research Time management, application writing and administration - " 70% of my time as an artist is spent on a computer because that's what I have to do." The benefits of grant application writing as a way of organising her thinking and planning around a project On rejection and asking for feedback Applying for multiple grants at the same time.

Annie Hogg is a visual artist based in Co. Tipperary, Ireland. After graduating with a Diploma in Fine Art from the Crawford College of Art and Design, Cork in 2001 and a BA in sculpture from Aki College of Art in The Netherlands in 2002, Annie worked and lived in environmental protest camps and learned organic horticulture.  When Annie Hogg was in art college, her interest in the environment was dismissed as not being 'real art', causing her to abandon her art practice.  Twenty years later, her work gravitates around the themes of solastalgia, ecopsychology and transformation. She uses plants, soils, stones, shells and found bones in her art practice, creating pigments and charring foraged objects from the landscape as a votive action to create paint and sculpture. She has won several awards, residencies and art grants, most recently was the winner of the K-Fest Arts Festival in Killorglin Co. Kerry.    Annie talks about: Her early concern for the environment Her work being dismissed as not being a worthy theme for art during art college Leaving her art practice for twenty years The importance of drawing and mark making Deciding to become a full-time artist Book illustration Return to fine art and sculpture Learning to extract pigment from the landscape Charring Family connection Foraging The impact of industrial farming Smell Sculptural work Collaboration for her installations Inspiration behind Lost - what happens in a landscape after the land has gone through conversion to an industrial scale farming model.

Artist Ita Freeney's 'Water's Edge' was officially opened here at STAC on 16th February by Catherine Marshall. It presents a body of ethereally beautiful paintings produced over the last three years. The sea is glimpsed at in all of these works but they are not seascapes per se. They play with abstraction and representation - finding and emphasising abstract forms in reality, while also observing nuances of colour, tone and form to evoke mood and atmosphere. It was a pleasure to sit down with Ita for a chat about her inspirations and her practice here at STAC on the morning after the opening reception.Water's Edge runs until March 18th - gallery open 10am to 5pm, Tuesday to Saturday.https://www.southtippartscentre.ie/events/ita-freeneyDublin born, Ita Freeney graduated from Crawford College of Art and Design with a BA Hons degree in Fine Art (1994).

This new body of work from John Kennedy, comes as the result of his Artist in Residence award with STAC and supported by Tipperary Arts Office. His work is primarily concerned with isolation, abandonment, and remoteness, while exploring the physical properties of paint and other less traditional materials. Edgelands focuses on expanses of land that exist in the margins. Rough and ready in the functionalism of their edifices, they are unappreciated by the average landscape lover. There is a silence and distance in the paintings, just outside of range of overhearing what is going on, evoking a feeling of being outside looking in.John Kennedy lives and works in Clonmel, Co. Tipperary. He has a BA in Fine Art from the Crawford College of Art and Design, Cork and he has recently completed the Turps Correspondence Course in Painting through Turps School in London.If you'd like to get in touch with the podcast, the email address is southtippartspodcast@gmail.com

WDRB Sports Reporters Eric Crawford and Rick Bozich look back at the weekend of college football and what's ahead for the local teams. 

Conor Tallon meets up with The Crawford's assistant curator Michael Waldronto continue the Arts House's popular weekly series after a short absence!But with friends meeting up again it's always like there was no absence!.Coinciding with the opening of the gallery's NEW THREADS exhibition and Cork LGBT Pride Festival, they're taking a closer look at one of the latest additions to the collection.Created in the aftermath of a residency in Shanghai, Meditating Tongqui (2020) by Stephen Doyle addresses pertinent issues facing the LGBTQ+ community globally. In making this work, the artist sought to highlight “the millions of ‘Tongqui/Tongfu' currently living in China. The term refers to homosexuals married to opposite sex partners because of an obligation to continue the family name or simply to avoid suspicion of being homosexual or for any number of personal or political reasons.”It presents a figure deep in thought, staring obliquely, and seated; balancing on a sphere, shoes kicked off below. Perhaps he is reflecting upon what might have been under different circumstances.Actor and writer Stephen Fry has described Doyle's work as being “part of a tragically necessary resistance movement,” particularly at a time when anti-LGBTQ+ laws continue to be enacted: “Gays are becoming bellwethers, early warning beacons, alerting us to humanity's direction of travel.”Stephen Doyle (b.1994) is a visual artist whose works addresses queer identity and queer culture. The artist's Dylan Is Ainm Dom… (2018), which was shortlisted for the Zurich Portrait Prize 2018, is thought to be the first artwork in the national collection to openly address transgender identity. A graduate of Crawford College of Art & Design, he is based at Backwater Studios, Cork and is presently exhibiting work in Queer As You Are until 19 September at Luan Gallery, Athlone. He is currently Cork Pride Festival Artist-in-Residence.Meditating Tongqui (2020) by Stephen Doyle is featured in NEW THREADS: Acquisitions 2021 in the Gibson Galleries (Floor 1) until 5 September.

Pasha is the founder and teacher of the joy of Creative Discovery, which is also the title of her latest book, she is also the author of Third Time Lucky: a Creative Recovery. She trained in Humanistic & Integrative Psychotherapy & Counseling at the Tivoli Institute in Dublin, Ireland, and Arts & Empowerment Facilitation at Crawford College of Art & Design. Drawing on and building from her experience as a psychotherapist, coach, yoga/meditation teacher, Reiki Master/Teacher, and three-time cancer survivor, Pasha supports and guides people through life transitions and challenges. She is a passionate believer in the integration of body, mind, and spirit for living a joyful and balanced life. Pasha works with individuals and treatment facilities, including staff support, specializing in trauma, addiction, living beyond a cancer diagnosis, and grief and loss. Today she shares her deeply sacred perspective on life, which emerged after beating cancer three times when she truly began to question everything. As a consequence, Pasha has chosen to work in some challenging areas with individuals who really need help through trauma. Listen in as we discuss so many different aspects of what it means to be human and simply navigate the trauma of ordinary life, from the stories we tell ourselves to emotions and the body. How Pasha felt called to be the brightest light she could be, and her choice to be a compassionate witness for those who find themselves suffering.
