Brenda Kennelly
Brenda Kennelly is a contemporary mosaic artist living in Ballyvaughan, Co. Clare. Being close to the sea and the Burren, near the dry-stone walls, the karst landscape, the hazel woodland along with nature’s ever-changing light and texture inspires her current body of work. She is prompted to use natural materials including slate, stone and glass as a medium, bringing the earth into her art. Her unique mosaic art invites viewers to consider their own connection to the earth and landscape and to listen to the response provoked within.
“Beneath the landscape is a world of shape, form, movement and flow, often unseen to the naked eye. Like the landscape, each mosaic starts as an unseen piece, allowing the materials to move, flow and guide intuitively to take shape and create form.”
Brenda has participated in several group exhibitions and a solo exhibition in2024.
