Fantastical tales from the past encapsulated in found, treasured objects and creatures, spark Kate’s imagination. Old collections, cabinets crammed with an eclectic mix of the weird and the wonderful, inspire her curiosity. By unclasping a catch, opening a locket to find what’s hidden inside or by ageing, denting and misshaping a piece Kate attempts to stir the fantastic to life.
I am interested in the concept of Escapism. Many people find everyday life rather dull and wish to surround themselves with products which alleviate this feeling.
I escape by reading science-fiction and fantasy stories. In my work I combine functionality and movement which creates quirky qualities in the final products.
