About
SHARON RAMSEY is a multidisciplinary artist working primarily in the field of sculpture and installation.
Her practice has included video, audio, textiles, photography and text, and has often resulted in site and location responsive works.
She uses a variety of materials from bitumen to feathers and glass to wood, collects found objects for installation and regularly uses discarded domestic items and construction materials as her mediums of choice.
Her work invites questions regarding human activity, presence and the social effects of economic and political policy.

Her final show from this Masters degree earned her a place on the Longlist for the RDS Visual Art Awards 2019 and saw her achieve the Fingal Graduate Award in Partnership with MART, 2019.
She continues to upskill in both her personal and professional life and has recently attained a PGc in Creative & Cultural Entrepreneurship in Trinity College Dublin.
She is currently residing in Meath, Ireland where she is working on a contemporary textile project.
