Kate Shaw (b.1969, Australia)
The work of Australian artist Kate Shaw is an interpretation and meditation of the natural environment. The painting is constructed as an abstracted landscape from figurative fragments and irregular forms of marbled paint. The materiality of the painting mimics the physical forms and patterns that occur in the natural world. These incongruous shapes of flecks and drips of paint crowd the image, whilst it remains strangely empty. (source: Sullivan+Strumpf)
