Lauren Foley
is a self-taught queer disabled visual artist from North County Dublin (/Fingal), Ireland.
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.
With a BA (Hons) in Geography from Aberystwyth, Lauren’s connection to landscape is both visceral and deeply considered. She is Autistic, and moved by liminality. Paint feels primal. Her preferred medium is oil & cold wax.
Lauren has had artworks published in literary publications in Ireland, the UK, Australia, New Zealand, and the USA.
She has exhibited in group shows in The Georgian Society, Dublin; The Crescent Arts Centre, Belfast; and Lusk Community Cultural Centre, Fingal.
She works as an artist under capitalism for money.
