THEMES

NATURE

Kate’s Nature-scapes are influenced by her time spent in Hawaii, Arizona, and upstate New York. She imbues the serenity of her travels outside NYC with bright colors, bringing a surreal lens to our experience of nature. Some of her repeated themes are mushrooms, jellyfish, and desert canyons.

THEMES

FIGURATIVE

Kate’s figures mirror the exuberance of their colorful aesthetic. Returning to her roots in abstraction, she seeks to promote body neutrality, body positivity, and body acceptance through figures that range widely in race and body type, with an element of exaggeration or fantasy. Her most common subjects are women, reflecting the wide range of bodies and attitudes she sees around her. She represents women in many states: love, exuberance and relaxation.

COLLECTIVEARTS BREWING

From more than 1,000 art submissions, Kate’s piece titled “Dancing Together” was selected as one of 36 pieces in Collective Arts Brewings’s 2021 The Amplified Voices series. This project highlights protest art, artwork that deals with equity/inequity, art from BIPOC artists, art from LGBTQ2+ artists, and artwork that conveys a sense of hope for a safer and more inclusive future. Entries were judged by an independent panel of Black, Indigenous and Latino creatives from multiple fields.

“Dancing Together” was featured across Collective Arts Brewery’s beer cans, and crewneck sweatshirts available across all of their sales channels globally. Kate was also selected to be Collective Art Brewary’s resident artist in April 2021.
