Catherine Gutsche

Tiny Bio | My art is abstract but rooted in real experiences, what I see in my surroundings, and how it makes me feel. I work without sketches, letting emotion and memory guide me, so the works suggest a story without being literal. It's about capturing a sense of place and the feeling that comes with it.

Tiny Statement | This series explores acts of holding and binding as gestures of care rather than control. Each small form is wrapped, pinned, and secured, like a tailor might - emphasizing tenderness, tension, and quiet repair. The works invite close viewing, where intimacy emerges through containment.
