Niamh Faherty

Niamh Faherty is an animator and paper artist that graduated from Limerick School Of Art & Design in 2017 after studying Animation and Motion Design. She always had a passion for working traditionaly and creating her work by hand.

Niamh grew up in Inis Mór, Aran islands an island off the coast of Ireland. Craft is so predominant to the tradition of the island, its culture and the landscape and this has had an impact on her passion and interest in traditional and highly detailed craft and designs.

She uses only two materials to create her Quilling work. Paper and glue as well as a combination of precisely cutting and shaping strips of paper to create her artwork three dimensionally.
