Cath Bloomfield B.A. Hons. Ceramics
Print/Collage Artist
Cath goes out walking in the land with her two dogs every day, taking in different colours and textures. These feelings of “landscape” are then taken into the workshop and are a basis for starting work.
Her preoccupation is with mark making and texture. She explores these ideas with collagraph printmaking and collage. Also most recently with installation, using bound cloth.
Cath uses collage and stitch as part of her making process, creating depth and surface texture. She enjoys exploring all the possibilities that paper can afford.
