ARTIST BIO
My name is RÃon Duffy Murphy (he/they). I am an artist, organiser, and general doer of bits, based in Dublin. I have a background in fine art textiles, activism, and gender studies. I work in primarily with textiles and mixed media, and my work explores queerness, love, being trans, and neurodivergency.
Alongside my personal practice, I have been co-director of the trans-led, anticapitalist art collective gender.RIP since 2019.
