Mich
Maroney

I am a painter and writer. Most recently I started a new literary/arts magazine, SWERVE, that was launched at the West Cork Literary Festival 2022. SWERVE gives equal weight to the visual image and the word. We are based in Skibb and have the facilities to hold readings and workshops and are very interested in creating artist/writer collaborations. Our first SWERVE artist-in-residence has been invited in May and will be living and working at our Skibb HQ for 3 weeks.
