Katherine is an international award-winning nature artist and passionate environmentalist. Her work is dedicated to raising awareness for our wildlife and their habitats. Much of Katherine’s life has been spent living on Bass Strait Islands, Tasmania, surrounded by wild seas and abundant subject matter. Her passion for these wild places resulted in a six month art residency on Shetland – a group of 100 islands nestling in the North Sea off the coast of Scotland.
During the course of many island beach walks it became increasingly obvious that the issue of plastic waste was becoming a major problem but it was in Shetland that her interest in seabirds and ingestible plastic waste was further peaked.
Creating greater community awareness of this enormous problem has become a priority in her work resulting in the formation of the art/science collaborative group ‘Vanishing Point' in 2015-2019. www.vanishingpoint.net.au
Katherine now lives in Hobart. She works from her studio based in the popular Salamanca Arts Centre, Battery Point.
