Overview

Kathryn Maple (b. 1989, Canterbury) is an artist specialising in drawing and painting. Her large-scale paintings feature urban, suburban and rural landscapes which are frequently populated by human figures. Her work is distinctive for its use of intensely layered mark making, lending the work both urgency and intimacy. The places and people depicted, rendered in a range of painting and drawing materials, are frequently afforded a sense of wildness or mystery by dint of their colour palette, collage-like compositions and recurring motifs such as wind-blown trees and winding pathways. This, her first monograph, features 379 images, many of which are reproduced for the first time. These include the presentation of her recent major series of oil pastel on paper works 'A Year of Drawings', alongside reproductions of her mixed media works on paper, as well as large oils on canvas. AUTHOR: Born in Canterbury in 1989, Kathryn Maple is an artist living and working in South London. She is a graduate of the University of Brighton and The Royal Drawing School. As winner of the John Moores Painting Prize, 2020, she was awarded a solo exhibition at The Walker Art Gallery, Liverpool, in 2023.
