Sunday, July 30 from 3-5, join us for the reception of Andrew Catanese at Little Saint, Healdsburg. See current works inside as well as a new mural outside.
Andrew Catanese’s work searches for new ways to understand ourselves and our relationship with the “natural” world. In their paintings, Catanese melds aspects of the human with animals, foliage, and other organic forms. The body becomes an ever-changing site of transformation, a bridge between realms. Catanese blurs the great divides defined by Bruno Latour; human and animal, nature and culture, organic and technological; in favor of understanding these things as deeply intertwined. By subverting dualism, Catanese’s work finds ways to talk about new constructions of the self. The work insists on a fluid and transformative understanding of our bodies; the work knows the human body to be a cyborg constructed from animal, plant, nature, and technology.
Born from a passionate collaboration between owners Laurie and Jeff Ubben, Director Jenny Hess, and Creative Director Ken Fulk, Little Saint is dedicated to climate justice, animal welfare, and kindness for all beings with a mindfulness of sustainable practices and support for emerging makers and musicians.
