Join us in Roscommon Arts Centre for a morning of tea, coffee and chats with artist Tom Meskell, who will speak about this work in an informal setting.
Tom is a professional artist for 30 years and over that time has developed a substantial
catalogue of work in Ireland and abroad. Working within community contexts has profoundly
influenced his core principals as an artist – namely that his work is authentic, celebratory and
respectful of citizen participation.
Tom’s work has allowed him to learn from the communities he has engaged with, which is continually enriching his practice. For years Tom has been exploring the capacity of translucent materials and illuminated forms as accessible materials to engage with communities to explore existential themes such as built heritage, citizenship, bereavement and memory.
