Two Worlds

'Two Worlds' is Kate's latest body of work created for Morningside Gallery in Edinburgh in May 2025.

​

​'The interplay of the real and the imagined is present in all of Kate’s paintings,along with fearless experimentation and an urge to tear up the rule book. As soon as realism begins to tip the balance within a painting, Kate disrupts the flow, breaks the line, moves the viewer's eye into another field or onto another detail elsewhere. Sometimes paintings which feel complete are stripped back - destroyed almost - and then layered up again, as she employs various techniques and materials - projected photographs, the reflection of her garden in the studio door, old paintings, unexpected patterns - to give the painting a completely new dimension.'
