Kate McCrickard

Kate McCrickard is a painter, printmaker and writer based in Paris, France. Kate creates elegant and contemporary figurative artworks often inspired by the happenings in Belleville, Paris. The sketchy and highly diaristic nature of her works lends them a certain Parisian grittiness and edge. Corrections, scrapes, tears and fingerprints are left unadorned, delivering vigour and character to all her pieces.

She received the John Kinross Scholarship and MacLean Watters Medal (1998) on top of the Sir John Ford Travel Scholarship to Spain (1998).

The exhibition included paintings on canvas and cardboard and a selection of sketchbook drawings by the artist.
