KATHERINE M. WATERS > Katherine M Waters, Lacquer inspired paintings

Into The Wilderness, is a meandering narrative which looks at the complexities of the teenage years. Waters uses a labyrinthine garden as a place in which snap shots of events are hinted at. Sometimes the young woman appears to be in danger other times she is the predator. Waters has deliberately obscured areas by staining with bitumen. These stains are symbolic of landmark experiences.
