About Kathy
Kathy Landvogt lives and works on unceded Dja Dja Wurrung land, in Castlemaine, Victoria, Australia.
Kathy probes everyday human experiences and relationships through personal story-telling and metaphor, informed by feminist understandings. While collage, painting and drawing dominate her earlier work, current investigations include three-dimensional objects and a longstanding interest in textiles, where the process of making itself carries part of the meaning. Her most recent work uses knitting and weaving techniques to create lacy structures in wire.
Kathy’s non-traditional art education has seen her study under professional artists including Jenny Watson (Melbourne), Erika Gofton and others at The Art Room (Footscray) and Catherine Pilgrim (Castlemaine). She continues to be informed by the rich conversations of art audiences and makers.
Kathy’s work has been exhibited at Divisions Gallery (August-September 2022), Wangaratta Art Gallery’s ‘Petite’ Miniature Textiles exhibition (June-August 2022), CraftLab22 (Ballarat Heritage Festival, March 2022), Stitching Change (FortyFive Downstairs, February 2022), and HER-Stories Exhibition at Chapman & Bailey Gallery (February 2020). She has participated in recent Castlemaine Open Studios and is represented in private collections.
