Says Kate Banazi of her Shapeshifter series, “The shapes are pulled from the outlines of these drawings, entwined and meshing, evoking tumbling hormones and dizzying vertigo, the dance between my body and my bed. The drawings go through multiple processes to get to graphic linear motifs and then again to be transferred to silkscreens. Each step is a move away from the source material thrust into isolation and brought back to an integrated form, in this state they are tiny viewfinders of layered quilts and threads, connections and overlaps.”
