bold, funny, relatable, text based art by cat. a

Cat. A is an artist based in Portsmouth whose work blends humour, protest, and personal experience.

Using text as her primary medium, she creates bold and satirical social commentary across painting, embroidery, found objects, and posters.

Her practice tackles everything from capitalism and social hierarchy to the beauty industry and failed relationships - always with a sharp eye and a playful touch. Her work is direct, disarmingly funny, and rooted in the everyday.

ARTIST STATEMENT

My work has evolved into being primarily text based - almost always in my own all caps handwriting - painting onto banners, an ex-library book, flags, t-shirts, or anything shiny. The statements I make in my work range from being incredibly personal and raw, to funny things I overhear.

I often start new work by looking through my ongoing archive of things I’ve overheard. Sometimes a stream of prose will come from my own mind, like a diary. Making art about my personal life will always be cathartic - sometimes I just need to get it out of me. I love it when I show my work and my stories inspire other people to share their experiences.

The humour in my work allows me to disarm, to cut through taboo, uncomfortable, or dark subjects and make them more readable, acceptable, and challenges perceptions. My work is very direct, and I enjoy the fact most people can’t help but respond to it.

I have used found objects in my work, such as a plastic skeleton, underwear, a disco ball, if I feel it contributes to an impactful message. There is a lean towards the domestic or stereotypically “feminine” in my use of materials, such as pillowcases, safety pins, jewellery, table mats and doilies – as so much of my work hinges on the female perspective, perhaps I am subconsciously drawn to these items.
