Bird and Stomach (Cutouts) is a drawing installation depicting a non-sequential narrative involving a bird, hawk, fox and stomach. Possession of the stomach shifts back and forth between the animals as they lose, steal, kill for, or passively find the bodily organ. The work explores ideas of fragility and control surrounding the human body.
By removing sequence and leaving gaps in the story, conclusions are discouraged
and the focus is instead placed on the individual moments within the narrative.
Catherine Lane is a Toronto-based artist who received a BFA from York University, and has recently graduated from the Independent Studio Program at the Toronto School of Art. Her work currently focuses on mixed-media drawing and installation.
