Lee Welch @leewelch.bsky.social · 16/09/2025
In the quiet, layered paintings of Lee Welch, one finds a fascinating tension. The Dublin-based artist often works as if excavating something from a deep cultural memory—his canvases feeling less like statements and more like whispered histories. Read more here: www.itsnicethat.com/articles/lee...

Lee Welch’s paintings are like inverted photographs that turn observation inside out
“Every painting carries the echo of its predecessors, each new position layered with the memory of what has already been risked, lost, or gained.”

OEDIPUS THE COMPLEX Preview: 23 May 6pm - 8pm In I’m just going to leave it (2025), a fleeting moment from the Golden Globes is painted of Cillian Murphy’s wife wiping lipstick off his face. It becomes a portrait of care, exposure, and the quiet vulnerability that exists behind public performance.

I’m beyond thrilled to share that my artwork has made it onto the Extended Longlist for the Jackson’s Art Prize 2025! With over 12,964 entries from 129 countries, the competition was fierce, and to be among the 3,168 artists selected after the first round of judging feels like an incredible honour.
