Damine O'Connell is from Kerry, Ireland. He lives and works in London. He is a graduate from the Limrick School of Art and Design.
'Damien O'Connell lexplore's the concept of the island as a closed space. Much like a waiting room or
prison cell, the island is concieved as a dual space of infinite limitation and
potential. The island is a place we long to escape or seek refuge.
He presents the viewer with a tableau of curious situations: a series of miniature
constructs with intertwining elements of absurd narrative. O’Connell’s island is
inhabited by philosophical loners and exiles. Ludic disruptions become an
accepted totality within the work but provide a bewildering conundrum to the
viewer.' -Occupy Space
