Katherine Williams

Artist Statement

I aim to create beautiful objects that feel like a mother’s love. I primarily work with non-objective form, as it allows me to explore and combine elements of space, texture, and color, free from the pressure and limitations of making a recognizable object. My work uses a combination of media, usually at least one which is rigid, such as cast metals, welded steel, or wood; and one that is yielding, such as fabric, wool, or yarn. During the process of birthing a sculpture, I get to know it, and come to understand what it means and why I created it. Most often the process comes back to the most meaningful thing I have ever done, to mother. Water’s elemental connection to birth as well as my childhood spent on the coasts of the United States leads me to seek inspiration from the sea. The vast diversity of life forms found in the depths of the ocean offer an array of possibilities for form, color, and texture in my work.
