“I am Kate Davis, a Sydney based artist with a background in Archaeology (Macquarie University) and Film (SAE institute). My work is shaped by a lifelong connection to Australia’s native wildlife and inspired by moments in time that reflect my affinity to place and memory.
I gather my inspiration where I feel most grounded and connected to Australian nature, from remote parts of the Flinders Ranges in South Australia to the Garigal National Park just outside of my art studio. My art provides a glimpse of our wildlife’s character, and shows what moments you could see if you look closer – like a pair a birds tucked in close after a storm, or a chameleon melting into the colours of the canopy.”
ABOUT KATE:
“I work with acrylic on canvas as I believe it best captures the vibrancy and tones of the Australian landscape. I build up my composition with various layers and acrylic mediums as it creates complexity and a softness to juxtapose Australia’s harsh and gritty environment.”
“Ultimately, I aim to reflect through expressive realism not just what I see, but what it feels like to be there, to pause and share space with these animals in their environment.”
