About the Item
Kate Breakey's artistic process is an act of investigation – a passionate attempt to establish an understanding of the natural world – a version that incorporates both intellectual and emotional comprehension which are sometimes incompatible, and distill them into a visual language of images where they can be contemplated.
Making images of these things is a natural extension of being fascinated, touch, or intrigued by them. Breakey claims that this process of seeing, and recording transforms her. It is how she expresses wonder and love, a form of dedication. It is also a record of her life and desire to connect herself to all other things, the acknowledgement of a search for explanation, for meaning and significances, a primal longing to grasp things which are unknowable.
These images are archival pigment prints printed directly on to plates of glass. Gold leaf is then hand-applied by the artist, and custom framing finishes each work. Each image is printed in an edition of 20, and the gold leaf and frame varies slightly between each piece.
