Rachel Naughton is a mixed media visual artist, living and working in Dublin, Ireland. She  studied in the National College of Art and Design, graduating in 2019 and is currently a member of A4 Sounds, Graphic Studio Dublin, and The Darkroom.

Rachel’s practice explores the intimate and collective human experiences of the everyday. There is an emphasis on the passing of time throughout her work; the temporalities we  perceive through our existence - frequently contrasted with the infinite sense of deep time outside our bubble of routine; and a curiosity to understand this interaction. Her work is often born from personal emotions that come about from existing in this sea of  humanity. Themes of anxiety, escapism, and monotony are featured, as she reflects on her  experiences and the state of the world around us. These feelings are commonly framed  through a lens of tenderness and appreciation of life, yet a frustration and somberness towards  the fleeting nature of it all.
