Kate Giles British, b. 1962
Kate Giles is a contemporary landscape painter living and working in Norfolk. Her work for many years has been focused on a keen and intimate vision of the landscape of her native East Anglia, influenced by the Anglo-Dutch landscape tradition of Crome, Ruisdael,and in particular Constable's deep engagement and familiarity with embodied life: an alertness to what is 'known by heart'.
In a dynamic and vigorous collaboration with paint her work, muscular yet sensitive, responds to these closely and repeatedly examined local landscapes, through the restless flux of weather and seasons; light and shade. Kate read English at Oxford and then trained at Camberwell and Falmouth Schools of Art. For many years she has continued to exhibit widely and her work can be found in numerous public and private collections both internationally and in the UK, including The Britten Pears Foundation, Aviva and Banco Sabadell.
