Why Abstract Artwork is Important.

Majella O’Neill Collins is an artist based in Sherkin, a remote island off the West Cork coast in Ireland. Her pieces express her perception of the surrounding water and ever changing weather of this beautiful island. As someone who lives in a city I find her work is an opportunity visually reconnect with nature. ‘Her approach is based on intuition and experimentation where painting is a means of reshaping the experience of the world’.

Abstract art is able to convey emotional ideas or experiences through visual languages and can create deeper relationships with viewers. In recent years graphic posters have become increasingly popular but in an original painting, through texture or unique forms, you may see or feel something initially but your interpretation of a piece might develop overtime.
