Movement is marked throughout Kate Dalton’s work but there is a visible contrast between her photography and linocut prints. She leans into a lot of colour in her photos, noting how people move through light. Their linocut pieces explore simple contrast, a communication of space without colour.
Kate earned a Diploma in Creative Photography at Mohawk College, then continued her studies at OCAD University. She trained with creative professionals, concentrating on still photography in the last 10 years. She grew into developing an adaptable art practice made up of photography, printmaking, beadwork, leather crafting, collage, and painting. Kate’s work is directed by her artistic and community-oriented worldview with aims to work alongside contemporary reconciliation and retrospection of community focused storytelling and historical preservation.
Hailing from the Mississaugas of the Credit First Nation, Kate spent a decade working and studying in Tkaronto before moving homeward to Southwestern Ontario, where she is presently continuing her work and art practice.
