Avril Corroon

Description

Avril Corroon is a visual artist from County Westmeath in Ireland. She works with sculpture, installation, moving-image, performance, and social practice. Her work examines inequity and how architecture manifests governance and gaps for resistance. Recurringly she forms exchanges with tenants, workers and unionised groups and collects toxic materials that hold distinct relations to lived conditions, class, health and the body. She has made cheese from black mould, collected 1800L of dehumidifier water from 55 households, made ink from blight infected potato leaves and performed on a city rooftop as the Airbnb logo.
