Clare Langan

Clare Langan is an internationally recognised artist working primarily in film and photography. She studied Fine Art at the National College of Art and Design, Dublin and later completed a film workshop at NYU under a Fulbright Scholarship. In 2017, she was awarded an Honorary Doctorate in Fine Arts from the National University of Ireland and in 2019, she was elected a member of Aosdána.

Her work is represented in numerous public and private collections, including IMMA, The Crawford Gallery of Art, The Arts Council of Ireland, Fondazione In Between Art and Film (Rome), The Office of Public Works, The Tony Podesta Collection (Washington), and The Hugo and Carla Brown Collection (UK). She has also undertaken public commissions for institutions such as NUI Maynooth and Castletown House.
Her work continues to explore the themes of climate crisis, landscape, memory, and human intervention, securing her place as a leading figure in contemporary moving image art.

She will be in residence at the CCI to present her new exhibition, Earthbound, planned until the 30 June 2026.
