Katie Davis, Boundary Lines
fabric, paper, paint, and colored pencil on wood panel, 48” x 24” diptych, 24” x 24” each, from Boundary Lines series

The artist on the piece: “These 2 panels are imaginary maps I painted. I’ve always been drawn to the colors and abstract shapes of maps. When you stop and think about it, the very idea of human made lines and boundaries that we see on many maps, are just abstract ideas that are not real in the sense that a mountain is real. The boundary between Ohio and Indiana doesn’t really exist. It’s just land. That’s why I think imaginary maps make fabulous abstract paintings.”

Katie Davis
Katie Davis is a mixed media painter whose work blends together a love of domestic textiles, paper, and paint. Her color palette and visual language has become a unique voice and is in direct relationship with her materials.
With an interest in feminism and women's mental health, Katie uses materials that are readily available in the home and also draws on contemporary interior design to inform her color choice. With these tools, she weaves together work that is whimsical and poignant. Katie also relies on her personal experience of postpartum depression, mothering a child with autism, and the strength and creative power of other women to inform her work.”
