About
Friz is a Sligo native now living in Bangor, Co. Down. She is better known for her large scale mural work, where she explores history, myths and the folklore that shapes the cultural identity of a place. Her work has been showcased in the UK, Ireland, Colombia, Poland, France, Mexico, Brazil, Argentina and Turkey.
Friz has been dedicating time to her studio practice this past year. The culmination of which is 'TROVE', a new collection of paintings responding to archetypes and imagery found in religion, mythology and story telling. Creating a distinct visual language that is placeless and timeless, while expressing themes through a personal lens.
Much as a magpie collects a trove of items that attracts them, Friz has taken inspiration from across the globe, the practises and meanings that resonate with her on a personal level and amalgamated them into her own unique mythology and story telling.
The collection explores themes like creation and death, costume, ritual and ceremony.
FRIZ has been supported by the Arts Council N.Ireland.
