    Artist Website Tips [24]

    In this episode I share what I've learnt about artist websites. I've just finished my third website iteration. Each time it's been PAINFUL! I procrastinate about it but like everything I learn by doing. We'd all prefer to be in the studio creating, but having a website is essential. I hope this helps motivate you because if you wait for the perfect website, you've waited too long. Put something up and then edit! Good enough is good enough!

    An art career is a marathon not a sprint, you have to keep running - Nuala O' Donovan [23]

    Nuala O'Donovan builds sculptural forms in porcelain clay based on the patterns and geometry of living organisms.  She has won many awards including the Golden Fleece award and her work is in many important public collections including the Irish National Art collection. Nuala chats to Éadaoin Glynn about her early career in architectural design as a facilitator of travel, returning to Cork and doing a self-directed MFA, how the regular irregularity of the geometry of nature inspires her and her deep love of pattern.  Nuala expresses her ideas by creating sculptural structures in porcelain clay.  She loves the plasticity, affordability and transformative quality of clay.  Her work explores pattern and form, taking patterns from nature as her source material and working within rules and constraints of classical geometry to build it. Nuala describes her studio and how she plans to work there by creating a dialogue between pieces. She talks about the challenges of funding, writing about art, rejection and her advice for emerging artists.

    The final product is less important than the journey of getting there - Rachel Doolin [21]

    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.
