Killing Time, 2010 - 2010

details about this work


Catherine Bertola is based in Blaydon on Tyne, North East


My work involves creating installations, objects and drawings that respond to particular sites, collections and historic contexts. Underpinning the work is a desire to look beyond the surface of objects and buildings, to uncover forgotten and invisible histories of places and people, as a way of reframing and considering the past.
