Cathy Bacon graduated with an Honours Degree in Fine Art from CIT Crawford College of Art & Design 2016 and is the recipient of several awards.

The rugged beauty and wild life of the Eyries peninsula, her love of animals and the roles we inhabit and sometimes hide behind, are sources of inspiration for her work: Eye Rhymes - Visual Poetry of the Sacred and the Profane.

She is a respected fine art equestrian photographer and exhibited in Skibbereen Arts Festival 2016. Her work forms part of Sara Walker Gallery Collection, PriceWaterhouseCoopers, and important private collections.
