Kate MccGwire's practice probes the beauty inherent
in duality, exploring the play of opposites - at an aesthetic, intellectual and
visceral level - that characterises the way we conceive the world. She does
this by appealing to our essential duality as human beings, to our senses and
our reason, and by drawing on materials capable of embodying a dichotomous way
of seeing, feeling and thinking. The finished work has a consistent 'otherness'
to it that places it beyond our experience of the world, poised on a threshold
between the parameters that define everyday reality.
