Katya’s interdisciplinary practice employs collage, painting, textiles, screen-printing and installations inspired by architecture from Bauhaus to Brutalism, geometric forms, colour and composition. Her work has been exhibited internationally.

Residency Project Idea

She plans to develop new and previous works whilst focusing on scale, connecting aspects of the space and two and three dimensional work. The residency will give her space to experiment and create large works through various creative disciplines including screen-printing, painting, textiles and installations. Space will defy the dimensions utilising the arrangement of lines and how they interact and affect one another through the experimentation of colour and composition. She seeks to interrogate and inquire about space and relationships within it, the aesthetic as well as the functional.

Mason & Fifth is a community living project that is providing fully furnished flats and studio spaces to eight artists for two months at their site in Primrose Hill. They partnered with Hypha Studios for the selection process. The live-in residencies are offered in exchange for donating a work made during the two months to Mason & Fifth, who will display the work in one of their future buildings and in an exhibition in early 2023.
