About this artwork
In crafting this piece, I poured my soul into harmonizing acrylics and oil pastels, allowing the abstract forms to dance across the canvas. Their bold presence embodies an emotional journey that stirs the soul, inviting contemplation. The vibrant strokes exude a living energy, designed to ignite conversation and instill a sense of dynamic vitality within any space. This creation is an ode to the spirit's resilience, a silent anthem of progress.

« 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.
