Angelica Network Launch

2020

Angelica was created in 2020 to raise the profiles of the listed creatives who are based island-wide in Ireland, leading to fruitful relationships and new opportunities. We launched this resource to encourage curators and programmers to follow and engage with the artists’ work, and reach out to them directly with paid opportunities such as residencies, exhibitions, artist talks, panel participation, workshops, and public art commissions.

With the directory and the website, we launched an Instagram account to allow for further engagement with the creatives' work.

Through engagement with Irish-based visual artists of intersectional, minority cultural or minority ethnic backgrounds (WOC, Traveller, Asylum Seeker, Refugee), we hope to nurture a visual art community built on care and accountability.
