Stephen Taylor is an Irish artist based in Dublin. He studied visual arts practice at IADT, and combines his work as an artist with working as part of the team at the Irish Museum of Modern Art.

Stephen's paintings and drawings explore the strangeness of our optical experience, with ideas drawn from popular culture, memory, observation and imagination, cast a meticulous and mischievous eye on urban, suburban and domestic scenes that might otherwise go unnoticed.

His subjects are dogs and their walkers, urban foxes, horses, trees, buildings, plants – all given an equal non-hierarchical respect and attention. His work has been acquired by collectors including the Office of Public Works, the Beacon Hospital, the British Embassy in Dublin, and Nova UCD.
