She produces commissioned illustrations and animations\, facilitates workshops and has her own artistic practice. Annie collaborates regularly with animator Aaron Ross on a diverse range of projects\, always with an ecological focus. Most recently\, they completed a three-part fully illustrated animation series for the Irish Parks and Wildlife Service on Irish peatlands.

Through painting and drawing\, the artist will explore items connected to her grandfather in this set of drawers and more broadly\, how cultures remain close to their dead and the symbolic objects that abet this attachment. The drawers will be installed in the space throughout the residency and the artist will only make use of materials from it throughout the residency.\n\nAnnie Mar will deliver a series of workshops titled 'Special Things' in Triskel Sample Project Space throughout the residency where she will engage fellow Sample-Studios members as well as the public and members of the Cork Cultural Companions Network\, an organisation that connects their community of older people to events in the city and county. These workshops will produce drawings for the 'Special Things' zine\, which will be launched in Triskel during the exhibition period.\n\nThe residency will allow for research into folklore\, beliefs and customs around death and cultural talismanic objects. Inspired by the work of Leonora Carrington and Frida Kahlo. Annie will spend her residency exploring the symbolism and spirituality in their painting and using this as a guide for developing her own individual symbolism within her art practice.\n\n\n\nTriskel Sample Project Space is a new partnership between Triskel and Sample-Studios that will provide a visual arts project space for artists\, especially emerging and mid-career artists\, to test ideas and to develop new work that can be seen by the public. This offers tangible career development and audience engagement opportunities to artists on their 'home turf' where they have a safe space to develop new ideas\, within which risk-taking is possible.
