Landscape Machine

LANDSCAPE MACHINE looks at the human drive to invent, collect, and create, and the associations these have with identity, status, social mobility
and lore. The exhibition documents the artist's own quiet interventions in the landscape. Marielle MacLeman is a Galway-based visual artist working across drawing, object-making, installation and participative projects.

Marielle MacLeman is a Galway-based visual artist working across drawing, object-making, installation and participative projects. Her work looks at the human disposition to invent, collect, and learn, and the associations these have with identity, status, social mobility and lore. Examining historic or shifting narratives, her practice is often site-specific in nature and frequently adopts the materials, documentation and display methods of a given area of research whilst employing protracted processes.

Residencies include CCAM GMIT, The Tyrone Guthrie Centre, Galway Arts Centre, and The James Mitchell Geology Museum and The Zoology and Marine Biology Museum, NUI Galway. Her projects have been supported by The Arts Council of Ireland, Galway City Council, The Scottish Arts
Council and Glasgow City Council.
