About the Presenter:
Originally from the UK, for the last 20 years Cat has lived on the unceded and stolen homelands of the xʷməθkʷəy̓əm (Musqueam), Skxwú7mesh (Squamish) & səlilw̓ ətaʔɬ (Tsleil-Waututh) peoples in Vancouver. Cat’s work explores memory, place, migration, and biodiversity. Influenced by Indigenous teachings about good land relations, alongside the deepening climate crisis, Cat seeks to develop a site-responsive, ecologically accountable art practice. Their interest in local histories and materials comes from a desire to be deeply connected to place. Cat holds a Masters in Communications from SFU and a diploma in Fine Arts from Langara.
