I have worked as an artist since obtaining an honours degree in art and design, at the London Guildhall University in 1996. 

I strive to make art understandable and accessible to everyone. I often bring “community” along in the creative journey for some of the artworks, thus reinforcing their understanding and ownership. 

In my work I like to combine different materials, utilising their unique inherent qualities and also honouring the craft skill for each.

Brigid Teehan’s art practice involves working with people, places and situations where she is operating at various levels of creative direction, organisational structure; curation and production. 

Her strategy has been to test how an artist might exist in spheres of life outside the art world such as businesses, workplaces, schools, mental health settings, communities of interest, and empty buildings. At the same time attempting to bring that work back to the contemporary art context.

For as long as I can remember, I have had a love of Art. As a child, I always had a pencil and paper to hand and spent hours doodling away drawing varied subjects from flowers to cartoon characters and everything in between. My first memory of painting was in Sixth Class in Primary School when our Principal introduced us to painting lessons.
