Catherine grew up wandering forests and creeks around her home outside of Pittsburgh, but she passed roaring steel mills each day on the way to school. The never static tension between nature and the urban environment shaped her perceptions.
Catherine’s practice of creating site-specific public art works spans 40 years and more than 50 major artworks. She recently reengaged in her studio practice where the freedom of experimentation and play has inspired this new series.
‘Give the viewer something intriguing to help them come alive to their surroundings and their inner landscape.’ Mystery, ambiguity and changeability is a metaphorical narrative, so interpretation resides within the participant. The physical boundaries of the artworks dissolve in light and shadow. Permeable, dematerialized, appearing and disappearing, it is changing light and the viewer’s participation that determines the art in any given moment.
In addition to numerous solo and group exhibitions in galleries and museums and many site-specific public art projects, her award-winning artworks have been featured on the covers of Sculpture, Landscape Architecture, Espace and World
Sculpture News magazines.
