Cat Marchese Citybonez™

Inspiring wonder and appreciation for hidden history within bygone objects.

Cat has always been fascinated by wilder environments, forsaken institutions, deserted cities, and urban decay. The structural remains of these once elaborate and populated places, their ghostly bones, are as intriguing to her as their shed historical skin. Through her lens, she seeks to unveil the hidden stories and beauty within bygone objects, inspiring wonder and appreciation in those who view her work. Citybonez™, her photography trademark, captures the splendor of our collective architectural heritage. Her unique photography of historical brick and Canadian logging industry objects pays homage to the past while prompting viewers to consider the impact of human activity on the environment.

Each unique limited edition tells a story, inviting us to value the grace and significance of our collective heritage. As an award-winning, Toronto-born multidisciplinary artist, Cat has passionately engaged with the creative community for over 20 years. Focused on preserving and celebrating heritage through fine art visual storytelling, her work is included in various permanent curated collections, such as those at the Simons Eaton Centre, Michael Garron Hospital, and the Toronto Region Board of Trade, and has been featured in Our Homes Magazine.
