ABOUT

Aoibhin Maguire, b.1997, is a painter originally from Belfast, Northern Ireland. She has recently relocated to London to complete her MA in painting at the Royal College of Art, and also holds a First-Class Honours degree in Fine Art from Lancaster University.

Aoibhin has exhibited work in a variety of locations across the UK, such as in The Open Eye Gallery in Liverpool and The Tub, Hackney in London. She has also exhibited internationally, such as in Baku Gallery and C3 Lab in Charlotte, North Carolina, USA and has been the featured artist of the month in Charlotte Art League, North Carolina, USA.

The first year of Aoibhin’s Masters at the Royal College of Art was solely online due to the Covid19 pandemic, so she used this time to open her own gallery and studio in Northern Ireland in an empty retail unit and has loved being able to work with local artists and help showcase their work, the highlight being her curating a group exhibit 'EMERGING: A Room Full of Art' to help support local artists after the hardships endured during the pandemic.

Recently, Aoibhin curated (and exhibited in) a group show at Kate Howe Studios, Ltd titled 'Coping, in Colour', featuring the work of six London based artists.
