Sharon Greene is an multidisciplinary Irish artist and cultural project curator.

Queens of Neon: Sharon set up Queens of Neon in 2008 as a studio space and a creative vehicle to explore projects as a solo and collaborative artist and curator. 

With an innovative and inspiring creative edge, Sharon's art and creative work has resulted in her working with many of Ireland's most dynamic creatives who together celebrate and push the boundaries of contemporary Irish culture.

Sharon’s practice as a visual artist began while creating multi-sensory, site-specific installations for Irish Festivals and cultural events. During this time she explored themes of ephemerality by transforming and manipulating found elements, often foraged organic material, into emotive sculptural works. More recently she has been expanding her creative practice into the area of print, paint, collage and pottery.

Embracing both nature-rooted and graphic sensibilities, Sharon’s practice often explores botanical forms though a graphic lens, resulting in a playful, colourful and bold visual language.

As a cultural project curator Sharon has created and programmed both urban and rural spaces that have successfully engaged audiences on a sensory level. She has championed visual artists and skilled crafts workers and has elevated them though public engaging platforms such as cultural events and markets.

Sharon is a qualified Building Conservation Consultant. She has worked as a freelance Conservation Consultant for over 20 years. She also consults creatively on a wide selection and variety of projects.

Dublin Flea Market: Sharon was the co-founder and organiser of the Dublin Flea Market, and the Dublin Flea Christmas Market 2009-2018. The Dublin Flea monthly market was a curated second-hand market in Dublin 8 that hosted over 80 stalls selling vintage and collectibles. This market was attended by over 5,000 visitors on the last Sunday of every month, formed a community nucleus in Newmarket Square and incubated many homegrown Irish creative businesses.

The Dublin Flea Christmas Market, located in the Dublin Docklands, at its peak, hosted 300 Irish-based design, craft, vintage and artisan food stalls (curated out of 700 applications). The market traded over 8 days, was attended by over 75, 000 visitors and had an estimated spend of over €4 Million.    

Sharon has mentored creative start-ups and has given talks on her creative journey at Open House,  The Future, Science Gallery Offset, Ballymaloe Lit Fest UCD and Swell Summit.
