In her formative years, living on Somerset’s Blackdown Hills, landscape and gardens were an early inspiration. Drawing and painting were key elements in her practice. At Winchester Art School Kate explored painting using oil on canvas and paper. Her work sometimes cited art historical painting through contemporary twists. Themes and narratives included mythology, swans, rivers, humans, ecology and sense of site and place in landscapes.<\/p>\n After Winchester Kate Corder continued painting and drawing and studied printmaking at Central St Martins focusing mainly on etching, lithography, linocuts and woodcuts. The prints depicted hints of rave culture and art history, referencing paintings and drawings Kate was making at the time, as a cross pollination of practice. The lithographs were drawn on stone or metal plates; their subjects varied, some pertaining to ‘mythology’ (human figures) and others ‘play’ (female with companion toys, animals, rabbits, cats or dogs). Other lithographs nod to Picasso or Paula Rego and the images are perhaps more brutal, referring to the AIDS crisis or animal \/ human cruelty. Some of the images are set in landscapes, other are interiors and some show New York city (with the Twin Towers). Kate’s linocut subjects mostly continue themes of companion animals. Some of her prints are black and white and others are colour. Kate’s woodcut are mostly black and white with subject matter ranging from gloved hands, boots, shoes, handbags and flowers (lilies, roses, cornflowers and tulips). The woodcuts have a minimalist quality. Etchings made by Kate Corder are more rare with subject matter also concerned with companion animals, playful rabbits, dogs and gardens. There are sometimes twists and ironies embedded in the imagery.<\/p>\n Kate Corder’s artwork archive contains sketchbooks, large drawings on paper, oil paintings on canvas or paper, large watercolour paintings on un-stretched canvas\/linen and installation material and photographic documentation of sculptural work.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Kate Corder can be commissioned as a creative writer and a mystical garden painter.
