Kate Talbot is a contemporary artist and satirist. Since graduating from Central St. Martin's in 2002, she has exhibited alongside such contemporaries as Tracey Emin and Grayson Perry.  Her work has featured in Vogue magazine and multiple commercial and creative publications.  

There is a poignant wit to her work that is both moving and provocative.  She ‘draws’ with thread and wool, creating layers of colour and texture which draw the viewer in.  Her dissection of politics, prejudices, fashions and idiosyncrasies are incisive and at times unapologetically confrontational whilst her representation of the ordinary can often draw out our nostalgic emotions.

Kate's works take unusual forms, depicting subjects often out of sorts with their 'on-the-surface' familiar appearance. There is a strong social documentary element in her work, in which images of politicians or modern day stereotypes are examined (sometimes ruthlessly) and held accountable for their actions.  As an artist she strives to find a common thread with her audience and welcomes the shock, laughter, misunderstanding and concurrence that her work can illicit.

Her work can be viewed in her home town of Frome, Somerset where her commercial shop Hung Drawn Quoted is situated.
