Encounters with Failure
Sean Farrell is a multidisciplinary artist based in Wicklow. Implementing an expanded painting practice, he examines themes such as human psychology, the object, and memory. A central aspect to Sean’s practice is how colour can affect the perception of the viewer. Recently, Sean has been using photography to document aesthetic phenomena found in the urban environment.
In 2023, Sean completed a study exchange at HDK Valand, Gothenburg, Sweden. In June 2024, he graduated with a First in Fine Art at IADT Dun Laoghaire. In June 2024, he was long-listed for the RDS Visual Art Awards. Exhibition highlights include Encounters with Failure at South Tipperary Art Centre 2025, RHA Annual Exhibition 2025, Elastic Traces at Gislaved Konsthall, Sweden 2023.
Sean’s work is included in the OPW State Art Collection and the DLR County Council Collection. SEE MORE
