Kate-Anna
St. Valentine
You & Me (Part 1)
Kate-Anna
St. Valentine is a Perth based artist and writer who has a hard time thinking
about much except what goes on inside her heart (which is a lot). She recently
left Paper Mountain studios, where she based herself for 2 years, and now works
downstairs in a rundown, 1970s, brown brick house, surrounded by her pets and
the memories she hoards.
This
body of work entitled You & Me (Part
1) is a self indulgent exploration of the common bonds and subsequent
breakage of those bonds that lie between different humans and each others'
hearts.
Kate-Anna
explores these feelings in tiny ways, using universal and infinite concepts to
embed feelings that seem to be small and focused inward on ourselves, but are
actually the largest and most common threads that tie every human together.
Kate-Anna
has used materials such as minerals, meteorites, glass, paper, home tattoo
and found creatures in this collection, stepping away slightly from
the illustration based work she has done in the past.
