  KATRINA NIEBERGAL OTHER ARTISTS
 
Katrina Niebergal is an interdisciplinary artist living and working in Vancouver, BC. She received her BFA in Visual Arts from Emily Carr University of Art+ Design in 2013. She is one of the founders of Sunset Terrace, a shared studio and exhibition space in Vancouver. My work focuses on the nature of affect—on feeling and its translation into language, its residence in objects and materials, its existence beyond the communicable—and considers the ways in which fleeting experience can be distilled into form, and how form can be made to transmit affect. I strive to make work in gentle verisimilitude with the world—works that employ the deft communicative potential of quietness; that acknowledge their own production; that engage with the questions and problems of representation and the idea of mimesis; that are informed by my intuition, memory, experience, and empathy but are unbound to me as a discrete being.
