Mary Lohan

She studied painting at NCAD. Her subject matter is landscape, but her gaze is always out to sea, or towards water, away from the land. Her paintings are primarily about the sea and the screens of weather that endlessly re-create its appearance. Usually we are offered a tidal threshold, a momentary vantage point of sand or sometimes mud from which we might find our way into the expanse of ocean and sky.

Her work is in the collections of the Irish Museum of Modern Art, the Office of Public Works and many other public and private collections. She is represented by the Taylor Galleries, Dublin. She is a member of Aosdána and lives and works in Dublin.
