Saint Leonards, United Kingdom
Kathleen Mullaniff trained at Camberwell School of Arts and Crafts BA Fine Art Painting and University of London Goldsmiths College MA Fine Art.
Kathleen Writes: Since 1994 I have used various pictorial means within my painting practice to map and record the decorative. My starting points have been varied and have encompassed the use of decorative printed fabric, photographic imagery and illustrated floral imagery. It is my intention to investigate the idea of home as a place laden with memory and cultural identity. The ongoing question is one of interpretation, the aim being to render the source material in a poetical pictorial form. Fine Art Practice has placed a question mark over the applied and decorative arts, viewing them from a cultural distance. I endeavour to address in my practice pictorial methods that make a contemporary comment on past histories.
