Sorsha Galvin - MA RCA
Sorsha Galvin is an Irish visual artist and producer whose practice centres on material investigation and collaborative process. Working across painting, animation, ceramics, photography, installation, print.
Her projects frequently evolve through long-term partnerships, creating space for collective storytelling, embodied knowledge, and alternative forms of expression. Through these relationships, she challenges hierarchical models of art-making and reimagines creative practice as a tool for connection, reciprocity, and transformation.
The human figure, archetypal imagery, folklore, and the aesthetics of folk art often surface in her work, carrying symbolic weight and emotional resonance. These references, subtly woven through process and material, point toward a visual language that is intuitive, layered, and open to interpretation.
Her work has been supported by institutions including the Arts Council of Ireland, Galway County Council, and the Royal British Society of Sculptors, and has been exhibited at the Royal Academy, TULCA, and the Mall Galleries
