Hello, my name is Geraldine Carton and I am an oil painter working from my home studio in Dublin. With a background in social work and environmental activism, my interest lies specifically in the human condition, and I enjoy oscillating between humour and vulnerability to capture moments that further human connection and challenge status quos.

About
I recently showed my first solo exhibition, Sisters, Not Twins, which gave voice to the female experience and the stories of the body. Over 100 women took part in the creation of that exhibition, which featured 112 works, including a massive "Wall of Boobs" (100 individual anonymous breasts portraits featuring a range of sizes, ages, breastfeeding women, trans women, pregnant women, women post-surgery, etc).
I am a thoughtful and energetic artist, passionate about creating inclusive work that connects with my audience on an interpersonal level, seeking to represent experiences and realities often overlooked by modern and historical media.
