One of the most striking artworks in the Summer Exhibition at the Lavit Gallery in Cork is a painting by Éadaoin Glynn, called Self-Portrait With Estrogen Patch 1 (Bathroom Mirror Selfie). The piece is part of a series Glynn is currently working on, inspired by the medical options available to those going through the menopause.

“I studied English and French at UCC, and they say you should write what you know,” says Glynn.
