Visual testimonies of refugees, displaced by conflict or war. Recent or in the more distant past. Narratives of persecuted families. The individual and the collective. All this the artist Miriam Mc Connon translates into a visual intervention. In art. She focuses on examining the post-conflict narrative of displaced people, looking at the parallel between the refugee and the non-refugee over the last five decades.
Miriam Mc Connon works in installation, drawing and painting.
She was born in Dublin, Ireland in 1977 and now lives and works in Cyprus. She is well known in the local community of Paphos, but also in her home town. It is no coincidence that she created for both the Cyprus EU Presidency and the Irish Presidency. Nor is it a coincidence that her works are in state collections in Ireland and Cyprus.
