About me
I am a conceptual climate artist and teacher. I draw on my educational background to create innovative exploratory Climate Art. I start the process by investigating scientific Climate Data coupled with studying flora and fauna climate indicators in my local rural environment in Kilmaley, Co. Clare. I also work as a creative associate with the Arts Council’s Creative School’s Team. Along side my studio work I develop participatory Arts Based Climate programmes for schools. Collaboration and interdisciplinary learning is important to my work. I’m currently working with Sean Nos Dancer, Edwina Guckian on an audio representation of Climate Change. With my work with Broadford NS I’m fortunate to be working along the Glass Artist Kathryna Cuschieri in developing a Green School and mural with the children. Last year I worked with scientist Dr Alice D’ Arcy and Clare Education Centre. The cross pollination of ideas and methods greatly enhances my work.
To learn about my third solo exhibiton ‘Plastic Imprints’ 2018/2019 please watch a video of my process.
“Sorohan’s exhibition, Plastic Imprints was the most successful art exhibition we have had in the Clare Museum”
John Rattigan (museum curator)
Over eight hundred adults and children looked and responded to the exhibition. It was a resounding success. I am deeply humbled as the artist that so many people were interested in my process and work. This motivates me to continue creating and teaching as a contemporary artist. Thank you sincerely.
