Aisling McCoy is an Irish visual artist whose work looks at how we inhabit space. Her background as an architect is central to her practice, which investigates the conflict between architecture as an intellectual concept, created through images, and it’s translation into built form. She’s particularly interested in the ideological aspect of inhabitation and the role of both architecture and photography in constructing the ideal. Over the past year her art and teaching practice has focused on the physicality of the photograph; both as a method of translating place, and an object which generates its own space of meaning.
