Creative Residency in Art and Sport
In 2021, five artists were appointed to the Creative Residency in Art and Sport.

This is truly an opportune moment for us to engage communities at the intersection between art and sport … Chinedum Muotto, artist in residence, Creative Residency in Art and Sport
This Creative Residency programme, a partnership between Dublin City Council Culture Company and Dublin City Sport & Wellbeing Partnership, provides an opportunity for five artists to work collaboratively with a sports club each, and with its members and the wider club community.
The five artists selected are Chinedum Muotto who works in poetry, visual, performance and theatre; visual artist, facilitator and theatre maker Áine O’Hara; visual artist Sharon Kelly; actor, writer and theatre-maker Timmy Creed; and Karen Aguiar who works through dance and movement.
At the end of their Residency, each artist will create and present new work which explores the theme of art and sport.
