Because it Was There Artwork

My work frequently deals with issues surrounding the environment and human rights. Using collaged material relating to the subject, my paintings subtly draw the viewer in with colour and texture with the intention rousing further curiosity. I have exhibited with the Just Water campaign in St Paul's Cathedral London, along with exhibitions and installations for Greenpeace, Toilet Twinning and The Medical Foundation for Victims of Torture My passion for the environment and human rights has lead me to give talks about the Role of Art & the Environment, and I have spoken at COP25 Madrid for RECIDA, Climate Change libraries (part of the Spanish Government education programme), and at Rothamsted Research Herts (Science and Agriculture) for Earth Day. Joining ArtCan in 2016, Catherine is on the Advisory Committee and part of the Green Team, encouraging other artists to discuss issues around Climate Change. I curated an ArtCan exhibition for The International Day of the Girl Child which combined a programme to engage disenfranchised women with the charity Hibiscus London.
