"What could we (re)discover in embracing our ancient bond to the land and sea that shaped us?"
Kate is a photographic artist whose practice develops through sustained, research-informed projects in response to the unfolding climate crisis. Working with sustainable, mixed-media techniques, she creates work that balances material care with thoughtful inquiry, contributing to ongoing conversations about ecology, culture, and the role of art in shaping environmental awareness.
Her photographic works often carry a sculptural presence, shaped through layered materials and tactile processes that extend beyond the traditional image plane. Created through a slow, meditative approach, each piece reflects a pursuit of balance and stillness, offering a quiet space for contemplation and inviting viewers to connect with a sense of calm and environmental harmony.
She has exhibited across the UK and Ireland, and her work is collected internationally, resonating with audiences who value both environmental awareness and contemplative, tactile artistry.
