Farrelly graduated from the National College of Art and Design in Dublin in 2006.[1] His work involves a recurring fixation with narcissistic, utopic, and infrastructural themes.

Farrelly was a founding member of The Defastenists, a Dublin-based art movement, in 2004.[2] Farrelly was the subject of and star of the 2018 film work GLUE,[3] a "50-minute portrait of the director Oisín Byrne’s friend and longtime collaborator, a quick-witted and acid-tongued cross-dresser who refuses to adhere to a fixed identity."[4] Additionally, Farrelly, with Chris Dreier, is part of the artistic collaboration: "Office for Joint Administrative Intelligence".[5]
