Kate Knight works primarily with figurative imagery. Within the drawn explorations of nature, Knight's concerns are upon the aesthetics of desire, sex and death. The work is provocative, playful, harsh and tongue in cheek. The compositions establish a series of graphic signs, aiming to evoke a narrative whether epic or fleeting. The current developments juxtapose a dark underbelly, presenting unease; as well as the guardianship of something sacred. This response is loaded with a sense of otherness, something beyond the ordinary; played out upon a dystopian landscape. Knight currently works in biro as well as painting and sculpture. The use of biro on such a large scale is labour intensive; enabling very fine detail and presenting an etched like quality. Knight approaches drawing in much the same way as she paints. Her methodology is comprised of layering translucent colour upon colour, achieving a rich and vibrant depth to her penmanship as well as a painterly luminosity to her subject. For this reason she considers herself to be primarily a painter.
