Katie Glaskin is a West Australian painter, printmaker, and anthropologist. Katie has lived and worked in many places including the Kimberleys, India, Nepal, Israel and Japan. Much of Katie’s work explores themes of endangerment and extinctions. Her landscapes range between representation and abstraction and often include animals (especially the thylacine). In printmaking, she primarily works with linocut and mokuhanga (a Japanese woodblock printing technique). Her work is informed by an expressionist ethos, an emphasis on capturing subjective emotional responses and representing these through the aesthetic effects produced by colour, materials, and layers. Katie has been a finalist in numerous art awards including the Mosman Art Prize (NSW), the Perth Royal Art Prize for Landscape and the Collie Art Award, amongst others.
