Q&A Catich Gallery Podcasts

Kristin Musgnug navigates the tension between our constructed ideas of nature and the actual landscape. For Musgnug, painting is approached as a process of inquiry that draws on her interests in the scientific view of nature as well as the role that nature plays in culture and the human psyche. The work in the Catich Gallery exhibition, Disturbed Ground, began in response to Albrecht Durer's 1503 watercolor drawing, Great Piece of Turf. Durer's drawing is a nature study of grasses, dandelions, plantains, and other plants growing out of a slab of earth. Music Credit: Bensound.com-Rumble & All That
