Michelle Boyle is an artist and occasional curator with a rural studio base beside Lough Ramor in Cavan, Ireland and a developing base in Mumbai India. Identity, journeying and presence are central to the artist’s practice, described as “sensitive, powerful and poetic”. She commits to deep observation of place, memory and layered histories expressed in a cross disciplinary practice which includes painting, drawing, video, installation and paper casting,

Boyle studied Cultural Anthropology (BA) and Landscape Archaeology (MA) which explore human narratives as shared across places and through time. She borrows a line from John Berger to express her belief that in the open and timeless space of visual art : ‘Here is where we meet’.

Boyle is currently exploring water as a container of memory and ritual connecting personal and collective histories in a new body of work titled ‘Kala Pani- Blackwater’ between Ireland and India.
