Joanna Peace

I am an artist and educator, formerly based in Glasgow and London and now living in the rural west of Ireland. My work emerges from the experiences of specific bodies in specific places, open to the rhythms, influences and entanglements that connect those bodies to their environment, pasts and potential futures. This close tethering to context and temporality, as well as often choosing to work collaboratively, means that I think and communicate through many different media, creating sculptural installations, performances, publications and moving image. This work has been presented across the UK and Europe, in venues including the Centre for Contemporary Arts, Market Gallery, Glasgow Women’s Library and the Glasgow International Festival of Art, Glasgow; Snehta, Athens; and Billytown, The Hague. As a Lecturer and facilitator for many years I have a commitment to amplifying the voices of others, and have produced radio shows, art walks, publications and exhibitions with and for communities. In 2025 I moved to Ireland with my young family and in March 2026 was awarded the Tipperary Artist Award.
