Roseanne Lynch was born in Dublin in 1962. She lives and works in Cork, Ireland.
She is an exhibiting artist and lecturer at the CIT Crawford College of Art and Design, Cork and Cork Centre for Architectural Education.
Her practice looks at qualities of photography and how the photographic process affects the act of looking. The photograph as an object, the materiality of that object and of the subject depicted are among the areas she explores.
She mainly uses a large format camera and film. Some of her recent work has included interventions in a space using a large format camera as a tool in the understanding of how we engage in the act of looking.
She is inspired by architectural spaces where light has been used as a creative tool to define the structure and animate the space. Architects such as Tadao Ando & Steven Holl have been an influence on her practice, as well as artists such as Hiroshi Sugimoto and Olafur Elliason, whose work causes the viewer to have an awareness of their own presence in the viewing space.
In 2010 she received her Fine Art Masters (by Research) and since then she has had solo shows in Enschede, The Netherlands, Dublin and Belfast, and group shows in China, Paris, Cork, Limerick and Dublin. In March 2011 she received the first Alliance Francaise Photography award.
