She was the recipient of the Royal Hibernian Academy Artists Studio Award [2012/13], Visual Arts Bursary Award [2015/16] and Wicklow Arts Council Artist Award [2016].

Tamsin Snow’s residency is realised in collaboration with Temple Bar Gallery + Studios in the framework of Helsinki-Dublin Residency Exchange Programme.


Snow’s proposal for HIAP will enable research into particular buildings in Helsinki and across Finland: the Kamppi Chapel; the Lakeuden Risti Church; and the Paimio Sanatorium. She is interested in the discourse around contemporary sacred architecture, and the legacies of the works of Alvar Aalto and Eliel Saarinen.
