Mia Cathcart
Mia Cathcart (b. 1993) holds an MFA in Fine Art from Liverpool School of Art and Design. In 2018 she was selected to exhibit at both Saatchi Art’s The Other Art Fair and Liverpool Art Fair, where she lives and works. In 2016, she was artist-in-residence at Muszi, Budapest, and her work is held in private collections in Norway, London and New York.Â
Mia’s paintings are based on found images, where she has no relationship to the subject. This seems relevant in the social media age of the instant; in this environment has the face become a saturated image and the form of portrait painting redundant? She seeks to question the formalities and expectations of portraiture, highlight the limits of the medium, and put emphasis on her paintings as ‘objects.’ The direct and fluid painting style that Mia uses has the effect of filling her subjects with personality, encouraging the audience to get familiar and intimate with groups of faces that are detached and anonymous. She is interested in exploring the paradoxes between familiarity and anonymity in her work.
