IN CONVERSATION BY JACKIE BALL [SCULPTURE IN CONTEXT 2016]

Using a 15mm lens and shooting into the sun may not be a good idea.

Jackie is a visual artist living and working in Dun Laoghaire, Co. Dublin. As a graphic designer Jackie manipulated type, letters and words into logo's and symbols using paper and ink. As an artist, she manipulates thoughts, meanings and ideas to create three dimensional objects using clay, glass, metal and found objects.
