Tom O’Dea is an artist who works with mixed-media sculpture and social practice to explore ways how different forms of knowledge impact upon our ways of acting and being the world. His work interrogates the political implications of knowledge production, practices of computation and organisation in contemporary society. He has exhibited nationally and internationally and has curated work that examines technological materialities and the relationship between technology and society.
He completed a visual art practice-based PhD in TCD in 2019 for the exhibition Unrepresentable: A Séance for Pierre Méchain. He holds Master’s in Digital Media in the Huston School of Film & Digital Media and a degree in Mechanical Engineering from UCD.
O’Dea is a lecturer in Sculpture and Expanded Practice at the National College of Art and Design in Dublin. He co-chairs the Network Ecologies research theme at CONNECT – Ireland’s SFI Centre for future networks at Trinity College. He is also a member of the Orthogonal Methods Group (OMG), an artist-research group and is one of the organisers of Dublin Art and Technology Association (DATA).
