BARELY VISIBLE VISIBLE BARELY

BY STIOFAN O'CEALLAIGH

Stiofan O'Ceallaigh Stiofan O’Ceallaigh is a multi-media artist and curator born in Ireland, currently exhibiting between the USA and Europe, O’Ceallaigh is also founder of Balaclava.Q - An international Queer Arts Project & Collective (Established 2016).

Exhibiting mainly across Europe and N/S. America O’Ceallaigh’s focus is an exploration of the understanding of a queer aesthetic, if indeed, there is one. A personal journey and an acknowledgement of flux, O’Ceallaigh’s works seek to emancipate those who know it, simply by promoting discourse around areas such as HIV, queer art censorship, body politic and internalised shame/stigma>pride and fundamentally and effort to reduce hate ... in all its forms.
