Noël O'Callaghan

Noël O´Callaghan lives in Berlin where she has a studio in the culturally vibrant area of Neukölln.She also spends time painting in the landscape of Ireland where she grew up. The main focus of her work is the lived moment and how to accurately render its fleeting spontaneity with fluidity and economy.She paint in both oil and watercolour and her palette combines vibrant Fauvist hues with more muted tones inspired by the Irish landscape. Her work favours energy over academicism but the accuracy of gesture acquired through daily drawing and life-drawing is very important to her. She grew up in an artistic household ,her father was the noted irish painter Diarmuid O’Ceallachain (1915-1993).
She has also worked as an actor and musician and often mixes classical art forms with live public performance.She has exhibited widely in both juried and solo shows and her work can be found in in private and public collections in Ireland, Germany, UK, China and USA.
