Lauren Foley
is a self-taught queer disabled visual artist from Dublin, Ireland. She has not formally studied art at second or third levels.
Following a resurgence in her visual work owing to ‘cocooning’/self-isolating during the first few years of the Covid-19 pandemic, Lauren has expanded the depth and breadth of her experimental art practice—most specifically in painting—while working on many series-in-progress, such as, ‘Apocalyptic Art’ [released] and ‘Mosses & Lichens’ [unreleased].
Lauren has had artworks published in literary publications in Ireland, the UK, Australia, New Zealand and the USA.
Since 2023, she has been attending in-person weekly self-directed painting groups facilitated by contemporary local artists, Patrick Hickey, Belfast, Karen Wilson and/ Cormac Dennis, Dublin.
