Ellen O’Connor is a curator and producer from Co. Louth. She builds responsive frameworks for inquisitive artistic exchange and career support. Often developing projects that unfold across online and physical spaces, her work interlaces themes of correspondence, rehearsal, and duality.
She is a founder and co-director of Screen Service, an online organisation supporting experimentation and connectivity among screen-led artists in Ireland. Key Screen Service outputs include The Collision Project, an evolving process-led artist exchange; now in its third iteration, it will culminate as a group show at Starling, Limerick, in 2025, supported by an Arts Council Project Award. Additionally, Allegories of the Metropolis, a residency and group show commissioned by Beta Festival, 2025. Independently, she curated a retrospective and catalogue commission of artist John O'Connor for An Tain Arts Centre, Dundalk (2024), and will curate a screening at the Abbey Arts Centre, supported by Creative Ireland and Donegal County Council (2025). Her awards include the Arts Council (Project and Agility), Donegal County Council and Rethink Ireland.
