ABOUT
Aisling Conroy is a multidisciplinary artist using painting, print, sound and experimental film. She graduated from The National College of Art and Design with a BA Hons degree in Fine Art Print, 2009; and a Master of Fine Art postgraduate degree, 2011. She has worked in the National Irish Visual Arts Library (NIVAL) at NCAD, on numerous archival, digitisation, research and educational projects (2012-2017), as well as working in the audio-visual sector on various TV and film productions since 2017. Aisling is the Writer and Director of the award winning animated short film BARDO (2021) produced by the animation studio and maps and plans. She is currently working with Elk Studios on their latest production as an Episodic Director. Conroy has been the recipient of Arts Council Funding, Laois Arts Funding, a Creative Ireland Bursary and the Centre Culturel Irlandais Bursary to name a few.
Aisling’s practice intertwines several aspects of metaphysics and the healing arts by incorporating meditative and sound healing modalities to deepen the conceptual and sensory dimensions of her work, while also engaging with the experiential intersections of art and healing. These practices extend beyond the studio into workshops and events, creating participatory spaces that explore introspection, health and wellness, embodiment, and expanded states of consciousness.
Aislings work is represented in notable collections such as the The Press Up Group, Dublin; The Office of Public Works, State Collection; Laois County Council; Axa Insurance; Irish Independent; International Centre for Contemporary Printmaking, US; The National Council of Bioethics; and private collections around Ireland, Spain, UK, the U.S and India.
