Cathy Carter graduated
with a Bachelor of Visual Arts (Distinction) in 2010 before going on to
complete a Postgraduate Diploma (with Distinction) in 2011. She is currently at
AUT University completing a Master of Arts in Visual Arts. She has been working
and exhibiting as an artist for the past 8 years.
Carter's work seeks to redefine the subjext by reorientating the perspective from which that the subject is viewed. Situations, places and objects that are typically understood from a single, defining point-of-view are upended, re-presented and imbued with a recontexualised narrative that demands deeper explanation. In many ways, Carter's work is charged with breaking down the notion of ideals supplanting commonly held persceptions with new thought.
Carter has exhibited
in successful solo and group shows in Auckland & Sydney and continues to
produce work from her Grey Lynn studio.
