≋STATEMENT/BIO≋
--------



Molly Erin McCarthy is a multimedia artist based in Plymouth, UK. Her practice is rooted in creating narratives and ‘worlds’, where the lines of truth, fiction and what is ‘real’ are blurred.

Themes of chaos, power, class and societies' quest for progress thread through her work. Molly’s methodology is akin to scavenging, drawing on sources as wide ranging as archaeology, internet lore and city planning to ask how we form, and are formed by, the physical and philosophical landscapes we reside in.

McCarthy received a First Class BA (Hons) in Fine Art from Plymouth College of Art in 2020. Alongside her practice she has  worked with organisations such as Plymouth Art Weekender, KARST Contemporary Arts, MIRROR & CAMP.
