Ruby Fitzsimons is a visual artist and event organiser based between Dublin and Brooklyn. Her practice interrogates, and attempts to transgress, the dissonance and forms of alienation that are consequential to contemporary neoliberal culture.

Shaped by her upbringing in the rural mountains while studying in the heart of Dublin City, her practice investigates our interdependent entanglement with other life forms, the complications of this dynamic in conjunction with modernity and the ethnographic idiosyncrasies of place.

She graduated with a Bachelors of Fine Art (International) in 2024 from The National College of Art and Design’s Sculpture Department, where her artistic scope developed to involve itself with anything that can occur in space and time, but particularly; moving image, ephemeral aesthetics, site specific interventions, publication design, culture jamming and sculpture.

Her work has been supported by the Art’s Council of Ireland’s ‘Agility Award’ 2025, Dun-Laorighe Rathdown County Council’s ‘Emerging Artist Bursary 2025’, was Awarded the ‘Digital Media Graduate Residency Award’ 2024 at Fire Station Artist’ Studios and was a Graduate Resident in Muine Bheag Arts 2024. Her work has been exhibited in Ireland’s Contemporary Art Biennial EVA International, The Irish Museum of Modern Art, Muine Bheag Arts, The Complex Dublin and a variety of artist-led art spaces.
