The city is lined with lithic bodies—embodiments of events cast in bronze and stone. In their meaning, they are inseparably tied to the places where they were erected. As part of a culture of remembrance, they reflect conceptions of body and mind in relation to the natural spaces that surround them.
Alongside mythological narratives, cautionary gestures, violence, and relations of power, edible material emerges as a connective medium that transforms the body. As a transgressive and infrastructural element, the edible installation “LITHOS—” reflects on how the organism situates—or might situate itself—within urban space.
About the Artist
Kat works at the intersection of architecture and food, as well as nature and craft. Food becomes a medium that connects architectural principles with nature-based practices. At the core are personal and collective experiences, shaped by foraging and fermentation as expressions of a deep understanding of the environment and an active dialogue with it.
Catherine is an artist, author, and spatial practitioner who engages with the sensory perception of urban spaces and playfully challenges them. Influenced by ecofeminist concepts of the self, poetry, and weird fiction, she works with installation, performance, drawing, and both written and spoken word.
