About this artwork
Blue Line 3 is the third in this group that picks up the dominant turquoise band. She is very drawn to this colour.
Perhaps because she cut and polished the stone and set it into jewelry the immediate need at hand yet the source and deeper journey of where this gem came from only emerged in her inquiry much later. Digging into subterranean plateaus and going beneath the surface as in mining is a metaphor for truths and reasons.

« It is walking on the land and understanding the force of land-structure via a somatic transference that feeds my work. »
An established, award-winning artist, Catherine creates works on paper, canvas, and wood panel inspired by geology, memory, and the natural world. Her experimental use of materials mimics ancient textures—rock forms, strata, and buried histories. Residencies in Iceland provided a living laboratory for engaging with raw, elemental landscapes. Originally from London, she now lives and works between Austin, Texas, and London, UK. She holds a BFA in Metal Sculpture and Silversmithing (Surrey Institute of Art & Design) and an MFA in Studio Practice (JFK University, Berkeley). Catherine’s residencies include Lucid Art Foundation (CA), Cill Rialaig (Ireland), and Skaftfell (Iceland). Her work has been shown widely, including at Seager Gray Gallery, SFMOMA Artists Gallery, and Hammerfriar Gallery. Awards include the Sonoma Emerging Artist Award and First Prize at “Visions of Science” (UK). Her work has been featured in Interalia, Shout Out Miami, and the San Francisco Chronicle.
