Born in Stirling and residing in Edinburgh, Catriona is a Queer intermedia artist with a BA from Edinburgh College of Art. The manifesto for her artistic practice takes the viewer on a journey through the history, conflict, and resolution of Queer voices. Creating a contemporary practice from these stories, she constructs an interdisciplinary range of affirming works for Queer and Allies alike.
Intersecting archival material with pop-art visuals, Catriona reclaims common objects into loud and proud statements of Queer love. Carrying our oral history into tactile objects memorialises subverted pasts and facilitates our ever-queering future. Through these queered objects, Catriona envisions an ever-evolving opportunity to transform, akin to how Queer lives develop. In her installations, interactivity and customisation embed new potentials for storytelling to become story-making.
Catriona has exhibited in London’s Leigh Studio Gallery, Edinburgh Palette at St Margaret’s House, Dundas Street Gallery, and Patriothall Gallery and did a summer residency at Edinburgh University as a full-time physics artist.
