Nicholas Devaney

Level 9

2022

He has exhibited in solo and group exhibitions since 2005. He holds a BA in Fine art. Currently lives and works in Sligo.

Devaney’s work is largely a biographical examination of contemporary masculinity explored through subversive sculptural renditions of everyday objects. These renditions are formed through the forceful combining and remaking of objects to invent new purpose. The resultant narratives appear humorous in nature. Formal sculptural elements such as scale are manipulated to further disconnect the human interaction with the object territories.
