Sharon McDonagh | Resonate | July 2022

Sharon McDonagh has spent many years piecing together images from fragmentary remains, initially as a high profile forensic artist for the police but now also as a visual artist. For this exhibition McDonagh has created an entirely new series of works in response to the environment in which she will be exhibiting.

McDonagh’s practice takes abandoned objects and imbues them with a deep sense of nostalgia through her replication of the effect of natural decay. Blurring the boundaries between reality and memory; these detailed and highly textured multi-media works seek to grip the emotions that are ultimately formed in the last remaining fragments of life..

In examining the fragility of life, we can come to recognise the significance of items left behind in the transition between life and death.
