Cathy Carman, graduate NCAD, widely acclaimed for her large figurative work in wood stone and bronze. Her expressionist style is also evident in the many public commissions she undertook in the 1990s, notably at the Blasket Island Heritage Centre near Dingle, Tuam Square, Sligo County Council Buildings and Summerhill in Dublin. She continues to exhibit regularly, both in group and solo shows both in Ireland and abroad, and while her more recent work has used digital imaging, natural materials, found objects and sound to contextualise and counterpoint the figure, she nonetheless remains an advocate of the human form as the ultimate in narrative possibility for her work in sculpture.


Artist’s statement:

“I like to work with the human body.
The human body contains the story.
There is no story besides the story of being human.
I like to work with the human being body.”
