Fiona Mullholland

Fiona Mulholland is an interdisciplinary artist who works across a variety of media including both small and large-scale metalwork, sound and photography. Her practice involves the fabrication of pieces for exhibition, installation and commissions for public spaces. In sculptural works, she generally reduces elements to their component parts to present poetic configurations made from common mass-produced materials, creating a sculptural ‘bricolage’ aesthetic, that cross-references conflicting narratives of ‘nature’ and ‘culture’. Often using universal symbols in order to investigate the tensions between ‘dreams’, ‘fantasy’ and the ephemera of modern living.
