Catherine Roberts has been painting for nearly 20 years from her Wellington studio and has exhibited in galleries around New Zealand. Robert’s work is the result of an intuitive dialogue, between artist and canvas, with no set intentions, but with a purpose to captivate the viewer to carry on the conversation. Driven to find balance, using colour, texture and contrast to form a harmonious rhythm, eventually creating intangible and obscure realms.
The artist works with large scale mixed media canvases, approaching each painting with an acceptance of serendipity; with areas of paint move unhindered and colours are given reign to compose themselves. Roberts says, ”Nothing about my work is perfect. It is a natural process, lead by a feeling of balance, resulting in an organic final piece. From the applied texture to the frames, all put together with the same hands... If my art were a couch, you’d feel comfortable about putting your feet up.”
Over the last two decades, the journey of Robert’s art has helped her find the confidence to dispel self-placed inhibitions. She says, ”I am not confidently spoken in life, but it seems I found my voice through my work.”
