Emerald Fusion is the view from the artist's house up on the side of one of the steepest villages in the southern hemisphere. The sheer sides of the gorge create deep shadows and amazing contrasts of light, which bounces off everything it touches, including the birds that routinely fly past. The waterfall has two names - Waipori falls, from the Maori word 'Waipori' which means dark water and Crystal Falls. This work has thick underlying textures evoking the dramatic geology of the area - and effects with the varnish, which sparks up the patterns and dots as it catches the light from different vantage points. Living within a natural community of birds, trees, ferns and rivers, Kate endeavours to paint the various moods of this dramatic environment; the ever-changing shadows, the glittering of a living forest full of bright-eyed native birds, all being carried along in the grand movement of the seasons.

ARTIST STATEMENT “My work strives to depict the hum and dynamic interplay of colours and light, water and sky. Life: the warm sands alive with cockles; the light angling through the trees; the myriad reflections in a deep pool of water. I want the raw image, the organic aesthetic to enliven the canvas and the space it goes on to inhabit.” Kate Williamson, artist. “The artist explores this analogy by creating landscape forms which strip away the reality of the scene to replace it with something that gives the impression of moving liquid. This is particularly evident in the earth-fire-and-water composition Pool of colours, where the solidity of the landforms seem to melt into a flow of hue and light. A similar suffusion of solid elements is found in the sun-drenched Orb. More tangible lands emerge in the high country valley of Origin and mountain meadow of Light Scatter II, but it is perhaps in the deep molten undergrowth and solid branches of Forest Lights that the exhibition reaches a peak.” James Dignan, arts reviewer.
