Kate Zambrano’s Solo Show: ‘Catharsis’
Known for her ability to capture her sitters’ psyche and her fascination with dualities, Kate Zambrano‘s new paintings and drawings present the juxtaposition of beauty and pain. Utilizing various techniques and medium, but always in subtle monochromatic colors, the self-taught artist continually explores the human condition by revealing the darker nuances of her carefully selected subjects. By coupling the standard idealization of beauty with deep and haunting melancholy, the she induces the viewers to conduct internal dialogues and self-reflections.
“I have always been fascinated with dualities existing in nature – in particular, those related to the human condition. I will be exploring themes of solitude, anguish, and the individual metamorphosis we go through as human beings dealing with strife. I aim to convey the beauty of these individualized journeys and embody these darker nuances of the human psyche. It is through these moments where one’s self may be truly released and uninhibited. It is my hope to capture this brief instant in time and shed light on the beauty that exists in the darkest places.”
