What themes inspire Kate Valentine’s artwork?

Kate Valentine’s paintings and prints draw inspiration from an obsession with time.

Inspired by a recent move to Gayamaygal country near the NSW coast, the collections document the native and introduced flora in the artist’s local environment. Valentine reimagines these lush environments in intricate compositions, flattening pictorial space and bringing botanical detail forward to the plane of the viewer, reminiscent of Japanese woodcuts and Pacifica textiles.
