Vincent Hyland.

Author and conservationist.
Original coastal marine themed poster prints, photographs and original art.

Vincent's inspiration comes from the natural world that surrounds him in his beloved outdoor space 'Wild Derrynane'  with wildlife, especially underwater life being central to so much of his artistic and creative endeavours. Also featuring in his work is the night sky and lesser known natural phenomena including bioluminescence and fluorescence in the environment.

Filming and recording the areas biodiversity for decades, has seen much of his work featured on television and radio. Contributions to wildlife documentary programmes include RTE's, Living the Wildlife, Tracks and Trails and his own series, Call of the Wild, with Wild Europe for Discovery Channel and the BBC's, Search for Ireland's Giant Turtles.

His recently published book 'Wild Derrynane' - a visual natural history of the Skellig Coast, has received much praise including from Sir David Attenborough, Desmond Morris,  Daniel Day Lewis and locally Des Lavelle to name a few. He has also recently contributed a written chapter about the underwater life of the Skelligs for the seminal book 'The Book of Skellig' published by Cork University Press.
