About the Artist      

‘Umbra’, a term for the fully shaded inner region of a shadow, is the title of Kitty Horton’s upcoming solo exhibition. Beautifully, the title captures the duality of using malleable, build-able oil pastels and paints, teamed with the impermanence and dusty quality of mark making with charcoal. Kitty’s works consistently explore materiality, while positioning social and culturally significant motifs, representative of a personal narrative. Umbra continues with Kitty’s lines of investigation, using distorted shapes, forms, and motifs, to work with the duality of light and dark, heaviness and weightlessness, design and experimentation.

About the Artist

Kitty Horton

Kitty Horton’s artworks often explore the materiality of oils, mixed media and drawing as primary mediums in her visual art practice. Inspired by contemporary and modernist painting techniques, Kitty investigates her surroundings by creating distorted shapes, forms and motifs. Mark-making and the study of individual marks extend the relationship between painting and drawing. Kitty engages with spatial configurations of interior objects and design forms to provide compositional structures. The mediums of drawing and painting enable Kitty to investigate further the hard and soft duality of opposing, sometimes complimentary forms/marks.
