Central St Martins Masters in Fine Art graduate Aisling Drennan is a contemporary abstract painter whose work is rooted in the material curiosities and playfulness of oil paint.

 

Her practice is influenced by the abstract expressionist movement of the 1950s and the expressive content of her own experience as a former professional Irish dancer with Riverdance.  Artists such as Joan Mitchel, Sean Scully and Willem de Kooning have informed her development arriving at its current balance between chaos and structure.
