SANTA FE, New Mexico (June 2023). Multidisciplinary artist Catherine Eaton Skinner, of Santa Fe, New Mexico and Seattle, Washington, centres her work on the balance of opposites, as well as methods of numerical systems and patterning we use to construct an order to our world. Thus, much of her art encompasses intriguing repetition and multiplicity - layers that allow a work to be beautiful as well as spiritual and give expression to her journeys through many cultures over the years.
Crosscurrents
This exhibition spans her 20 years of marine illustration while living on San Juan Island to her recent work of water environments. Water moves in a continuum between the sky and the earth, absorbing and feeding the ground and the life upon which we depend, powerful and not always controllable. Traced in the landscape of the earth, this element marks the memory of time.
