About
Image by Jenny Irene Miller
Kerry Cottle is a visual artist based in Sacramento, California. Her work is an ongoing meditation on material, abstraction, and color aimed at symbolically reconsidering, restoring, and/or subverting flawed value systems. Interested in the somatic process of painting and the gradual excavation of images, Kerry explores the depth of possibility within oil paint and its histories, as well as formulating new responses to questions of sustainability in material. Through this questioning, she has begun to reformulate paper waste, and locally sourced plant and mineral pigment into medium. She is of Italian, Irish, and mixed European descent.
