Seán O'Riordan (Galway, Ireland) is an artist with a BA in Fine Art and Visual Culture from NCAD, Dublin (2016), and a Master’s in Fine Art and Design from the Sandberg Institute, Amsterdam (2023). Their multidisciplinary practice spans ceramics, woodwork, textiles, writing, and digital processes, exploring themes of value, desire, and consumption through the lenses of sexuality, folklore, and language.
Seán often combines architectural and industrial techniques with craft and found objects such as discarded scratch cards or nightclub tokens. Using sculpture and making as tools for worldbuilding the work ranges from expansive, large-scale sculpture and installations to more intricate, detailed and handcrafted works.
Seán also offers graphic design and production services specialising in the arts and cultural sectors. For all enquiries, contact seanoriordan6(at)gmail.com.
