Kate Strupinski

I work predominantly with mixed media, often layering paint with drawing, print, typography and found ephemera. Theme and subject varies but the common thread is a personal response to the subject, often using both recognisable and abstract elements to convey more of a feeling of the subject than a literal representation.
Each painting is a reflection on a memory, a record of an experience or an expression of an emotion in response to something. I enjoy creating a kind of dialogue between the mark-making, collage materials and printed or found elements. My hope is that the viewer gets a glimpse of a recognisable fragment, colour combination or textural mark so that they may be reminded of something from their own experience or memory when looking at my work.
