My name is Karina, and I am a printmaker based in Montréal, Québec. While I was doing a BA in Fine Arts with a focus on drawing and painting, I came across printmaking and was instantly hooked. I dropped my paintbrushes and picked up carving tools and I started my journey. I like to make prints which evoke sentiment with a bit of subtle storytelling. In this case, my two prints ‘Cat playing in the high grass’ and ‘Waiting for tomorrow’ are a diptych which tells a story of a farm cat living his life as he wishes, chasing insects without any obligations waiting for him. I want to make prints which grasp moments that cannot be captured. In a society where everything is filmed, captured and scrutinized, I wanted to imagine a series of unseen moments. Moments that happen because they simply do, whether somebody is there to witness it or not.
