Ciara Healy is an artist, writer and curator based at Pallas Studios, Dublin. She is an archivist and administrator at the National Visual Arts Library, NCAD and is currently completing a Research MPhil Scholarship in Irish Curatorial Policy and Practice at DIT. Since graduating, Healy has exhibited extensively in several major group shows in Dublin, Belfast and Cork. She has also worked on solo site-specific projects with the Natural History Museum, Dublin and was awarded an OPW Public Art Commission for Dublin Zoo. Her curatorial projects include the Dublin Fringe Festival 2004 Visual Arts Programme as well as exhibitions for the artists group Pin. She has published essays on visual art for numerous catalogues and magazines such as CIRCA. Healy's work is concerned with images of fugitive and lost time. Using fragmentary snapshots cut into butterfly forms and preserved in a quasi-scientific manner, she explores the revolving relationship between our existence and the quotidian debris we create.
