CATE CURRAN is a New Jersey based fine artist whose work reflects visual interpretations of her relationships with those around her. Whether it be with her family, her environment, or even with herself, these relationships aid in her self-discovery as an individual and as an artist. Primarily through the genre of self-portraiture, she encapsulates the outward and internal emotions these relationships possess. Color, subtle symbolism, and vulnerability all play a role in the way in which her pieces communicate an openness to interpretation for the viewer. As the very nature of these relationships evolve, as does the way in which these relationships are communicated through her artwork. She is currently studying Fine Art at The College of New Jersey.
