I am a contemporary artist, working predominantly in textiles, yarns, paint and clay. My work incorporates themes of narrative, character and nature. I am inspired by my childhood memories of holidays by the sea, by the surrounding landscape, cultural traditions, and mythology.
I have an avid interest in stitched textiles which now spans over 40 years. I have explored a number of crafts such as weaving and ceramics. Today all of my acquired skills link together to create my work by harnessing natural processes and working with found, gathered and grown materials. All my work is signed with my family name, Murphy, an ancient Irish name.
My current collection that I am working on , A Crow and a Few Sparrows, is greatly influenced by the historic Irish landscape.
