Bio:
Trish Taylor Thompson, originally from Dublin, lives and works in North Tipperary. Passionate about art from an early age, she takes inspiration from Mother Nature. Her current practice is informed by the effects of climate change on the natural world. Using both acrylics and oils, she creates vibrant paintings of the delicate flora and fauna against an abstract background created by glass inks. This trademark juxtaposition responds to the ongoing conflict between the natural world versus the manmade materials that are ultimately destroying the planet. Bringing awareness to the viewer of the fragility of nature informs her work.
