Colm Without is a visual artist from Dublin, now based in Denver, whose work explores visual perception through geometric abstraction and spatial perspective.
With a background in Fine Art Sculpture (First-Class Honors BA), his practice blends formal training with five years of creative leadership as a director for an artist collective and creative agency. During this time, he led multidisciplinary teams on public art, design, and installation projects—collaborating with small businesses to international brands across Ireland and abroad.
Colm’s practice fuses sculptural sensibilities with urban painting, using abstraction as a tool to reshape how people engage with space. Influenced by architecture, Minimalism, Op Art, and the Light and Space movement, he creates immersive works that balance conceptual clarity with sensory impact.
His murals and installations often feature layered geometries, tonal gradients, and perspective shifts that create a sense of movement and transformation. Whether in studio or public contexts, his work responds to its environment—activating surfaces and encouraging reflection. Colm’s work has been exhibited at institutions including the Irish Museum of Modern Art (IMMA) and the Royal Hibernian Academy (RHA).
Now working across the U.S., Colm continues to explore the intersection of art, architecture, and perception—transforming everyday spaces into visually resonant, experiential environments.
