Highlights and challenges of showing art virtually with Lauren Ciara McCullough (Ep.24)

This week Oonagh speaks with Lauren Ciara McCullough about some of the highlights and challenges of having a virtual art show having recently taken part in the second part of the E-Quadrant show.  We also get to hear about how lockdown has affected Lauren’s work and process as a painter as she settles into her new home.
Lauren Ciara McCullough is recent graduate of the BA Course in Fine art at Ulster University, attaining a First-Class Honours. Her practice focuses centrally on painting; however, it stems into areas such as drawing, poetry, collage, photography and most recently walking. The sublime is the central motif of McCullough’s practice. A practice of questioning whether it is possible to convey something beyond self and the earthly reality, through image and paint? As an emerging artist McCullough has shown in multiple group exhibitions since her graduation in 2019 and has gone on to pursue an associate fellowship in Higher Education alongside her Masters.
McAteer and Zara Lyness, Buoy Park Art is a podcast full of chat about art and artists in Northern Ireland and beyond. Meeting on the Fine Art Master’s Course in Ulster University, Oonagh (BA Photography) and Zara (BA Fine Art) started the podcast as a relaxed platform to encourage inclusive discussions about art and artists and to extend a support network to independent and rural artists at all career stages. The podcasts include invited guests talking about their work and interests and introducing different topics each week, along with the ups and downs of the life or an emerging artist.
