Cath Dunn

I am a painter & printmaker inspired by natural forms of the Peak District: rocks, trees, the lie of the land & works with pattern, rhythm & colour.

I work in a variety of mediums and have won awards through the British Open Art competition, Buxton Museum, Wirksworth Festival & have been awarded an artist’s residency at Linkshouse, Orkney.

I have a background in land use and the environment. I have worked with: communities across Africa to enable local management of natural resources, in the Scottish uplands to identify ways to manage heather for the benefit of farmers and wildlife alike and with communes in central Asia to mitigate against climate change. As with any artist these experiences build into and influence my emotional and individual response to the world around me.
