Born in Co.Cork in 1963, Walsh completed her Diploma in Fine Art at the Crawford School of Art and Design in 1985 and completed her MFA in sculpture in the University of Ulster in 1986.  Walsh’s many public artworks were often negotiated through the participation of various constituencies and communities through dialogue, participatory, and collaborative as well as educational practices. Her site - specific sculptural interventions interrogate queer,  intersectional feminist and national identity. Walsh is dedicated to connecting  the viewer’s experience by considering how to contextualise material form and space into an resonate environment. Walsh’s artwork is activated by a drive to explore persisting joy, survival and rebelliion, playfully contesting established form and embedded lore.Themes of countercultural activism puncture and transform constricted orthodoxies and are generated through ‘othered’ dynamics of embodied experience and desire.
