Hazel O’Sullivan is a multidisciplinary artist whose practice explores the afterlives of colonial collections, Irish mythologies, and speculative forms of prototype and architecture. She works across sculpture, painting, drawing, and digital fabrication to reposition cultural artefacts and visual languages from Ireland within contemporary discourses of exhibition history and display. The interplay of analogue and digital is central to the language of her work, drawing from her alternative epistemological research into the coexistence of religious manuscripts, mythology, and retrofuturism.

Her work employs precision and modularity to merge the languages of abstract modernism with the speculative frameworks of retrofuturism. This combination produces complex and layered works that reflect an uneasy and unsettled sense of the present moment, engaging with ideas of alternative futures and world-building while embedding Irish cultural memory within broader decolonial and art historical dialogues
