Paintings by Catherine Henke. Photographs by Kathleen Reichelt.

Kathleen Reichelt creates with images, words, sound and stage. Her work reflects an ongoing exploration of contemporary themes, material, colour and form. Her writing has been published in Arteidolia, Bone Bouquet, and the anthology Suitcase of Chrysanthemums, great weather for MEDIA. The artist has exhibited and performed in museums, galleries and theatres including Le Poisson Rouge, New York, Casa del Popola, Montreal, Silent Barn, Brooklyn, SAW Gallery, Ottawa, Project Gallery, Toronto and Folie Culture in Quebec City.

Catherine Henke, a visual artist originally from Geneva, Switzerland chose to live and work in Montemor-o-Novo, Portugal. This radical change in her living conditions encouraged her to learn about rural life and the practice of organic agriculture. She has developed knowledge related to the rhythms of nature and to an ecological consciousness. Her art practice comprises varying uses of numerous techniques, such as painting, sculpture, ceramic and mixed media installation.
