About the Artist      

Boundary is a series of work created during a week-long residency at Side Gallery. Kate actively worked on dismantling previous work processes through journaling and experimentation, research and studio play. The process evolved to include minimal colour palette use, a slower approach to layering and fewer lyrical marks. Inherently a strong body of abstract expressionism, the works in Boundary are a calculated removal from Kate’s signature animated actions of lyricism and moodiness. The results of this body of work are calm, restrained and evidently pushed the parameters, or indeed, boundary, of Kate’s approach and process.
