Kate Lain is a Pasadena-based multidisciplinary artist working in clay, printmaking (including cyanotypes), collage, film, and video. In her varied works, Kate plays with color, texture, and movement and is interested in ways humans understand nature. She approaches both her ceramics and cyanotypes as collaborations—with material properties, with objects, with natural and chemical processes, with weather and other conditions, with the elements of chance that arise from all of these. Intention and discovery are equally important to her process. Kate’s handcrafted porcelain and stoneware necklaces, vases, and sculptural objects recall sculptural forms and delicate colors, shapes, and textures of desert landscapes and geothermal regions of the western and southwestern U.S. Her cyanotypes are on the one hand documents, records of experiments and conditions, but they are also ethereal traces of light and chemistry that point beyond the corporeal.
