About

Within physical and constructed landscapes Anna Macleod's work proposes the possibility of alternatives to the competing use and values placed on land and its resources. Recently in her sculptural and installation work she has combined simple engineering and existing systems of rain water technology to question roles and responsibilities towards the infrastructure that underpins our existence. In the play between hi-tech and low tech systems local solutions with global resonances are teased out. Water is the emotive tool used here to explore deeper concerns of access, human rights and civic duty.

Anna Macleod is a visual artist based in Leitrim. Her work has recently been exhibited nationally and internationally; Camouflash / Mediations, Posnan Biennale, Poland and New Sites, New Fields, Leitrim Sculpture Center, Manorhamilton 2008, Public Gestures: An Exploration of Practice Led Research, The Lab, Dublin and Curio Kiosk Project, KNUST, Kumasi, Ghana 2009.
