Katherine St Angelo’s paintings and mixed media art predominantly reflects emotions and experiences that ultimately encapsulates her own identity through the artwork. The pieces invite the viewer to pursue their own thoughts and emotions, and encourages individual reflection to find their own path through the story.
Her work aims to manifest various emotional states relating to the complexities of human interactions and relationships. The ethereal and semi-abstract compositions welcome multiple interpretations through scenes and forms that are suggested but never fully established. In the work, the use of colour, texture, and detail, is varied, and subtly considered as the conversation with the canvass develops, in an act of listening, areas of meditative space are introduced to convey a sense of calm and introspection for the viewer.
St. Angelo’s pieces explores the acts, interactions, and journeys that are an integral part of the human experience as we try to reflect, heal, and endeavour to cultivate existence through each set of our own evolving and individual circumstances.
Katherine St. Angelo is originally from the United States now lives and works in Belfast, Northern Ireland. She graduated with a BA (Hons) in Fine and Applied Textiles from the Belfast School of Art. Her work has been exhibited in numerous group shows and is held in private collections internationally.
