For her second solo show in the gallery, Katie Deith presents a series of paintings depicting fantasy landscapes in her obsessive, precise style confidently disturbed by vibrant abstract brushstrokes. Just like the best writers of Sci-fi, and the best film directors, Katie Deith, in her aesthetically compelling paintings is able to successfully blur the boundaries between fact and fiction, reality and fantasy; the figuration in her dream-like landscapes is a convincing iteration of actual scenes, composed as a sort of fantasia on the theme of holiday destinations. Roy Exley Katie Deith trained at the Slade School of Fine Art, London. Recently she was included in Natural Causes, Wings Projects, Switzerland; The Real Ideal, The Millennium Galleries, Sheffield. |
