Landscapes, Ladies and Literature

Kate completed artist-in-residence programs in the historic gold mining town of Hill End, NSW and Halifax, Nova Scotia in 2013.

Landscapes Ladies & Literature is the result of Ward’s experiences where she explored the subtle relationships of domestic interiors as the women’s domain within particular reference to pioneering history of the two countries.
Her work focuses on the complex interactions within these spaces and our perceptions of the people who live in them.  Inspired by writings by pioneer women in both countries, Ward represents everyday objects that are imbued with meaning which hint at their domestic life.
