Cathy Coughlan Arts Ltd

Cathy Coughlan Arts Limited is a multidisciplinary arts practice led by Cathy Coughlan, who creates hybrid works that weave together visual art, film and dance‑theatre. Operating across both gallery and theatre environments, the company also devises site‑specific and community‑responsive projects, offering audiences fresh, immersive experiences that blur the boundaries between artistic disciplines.

The practice specialises in collaborative research and production, most recently receiving an Arts Council Bursary Award in 2020 to develop the new work *RISK* with fellow artists Matt Szczerek and Michelle Cahill. Cathy’s portfolio includes a series of residencies – notably a third stint at Rua Red Arts Centre in 2019, funded by the Arts Council’s Dance Artist in Residence Award and supported by South Dublin County Council. Ongoing support from Arts Council Ireland, Dublin City Council, Laois County Council, Kildare County Council, the Dunamaise Arts Centre, Dance Ireland, the Shawbrook Residency Programme and the Dublin Fringe Festival underscores the company’s strong standing within the Irish contemporary arts sector.
