Katarina is a visual artist primarily focused on the medium of painting and combined photographic collage.
Born (1998) in the United Kingdom. Graduated from the Royal Academy of art, Den Haag with a BA in Fine Arts (2022) Based in the UK and Netherlands.
Statement
Katarina’s work is rooted in the exploration of amorphic landscapes and surreal scenarios that delve into figuration, phantasmagoria, and the deep interconnections between nature, self, and the strange beauty of existence. Through a fusion of collage and painting, she allows mediums to merge, morph, and unravel, blurring the boundaries between the imagined and the real. The collage often acts as a seed within her process, an initial form from which the painting expands, evolves, and transforms. Drawn especially to organic forms and their limitless potential, Katarina creates dreamlike, biomorphic worlds that hover on the edge of reality and fiction. Each piece serves as an inquiry into what it means to be alive, to belong, and to witness the often alien and uncanny beauty of the living world.
