about

Michael Burke established Sculpture Works in Dublin, Ireland in 1983, having qualified from N.C.A.D. (National College of Art & Design, Dublin). Michael has a genuine sensitivity and a unique ability to handle and combine a variety of materials including bronze, steel, wood, stained glass, ceramics and stone. This sensitivity is reflected in artworks created for commissions in public locations, interior and exterior, for churches and other liturgical spaces and for private clients.

Michael Burke’s adaptability and flexibility when working with the design team is reflected in all stages of the process from initial contact with the client through to the installation of the finished work. Michael’s strength lies in progressing the client’s initial concept into a tactile reality.

With over 20 years’ involvements in the arts, Michael Burke held the position of chairman of Sculpture Society of Ireland - now Visual Artists Ireland – for many years. He was elected president of International Society of Christian Artists (S.I.A.C.) in 2005 and in 2006 was elected to the Executive Committee of the European Council of Artists.

Works created by Michael Burke are located in Ireland, The United Kingdom, Africa and the United States.
