Cate Holt makes work rooted in collage, often pairing objects with gestures and conventions of painting. Her son's discarded fishing lure, a can of tuna, false eyelashes — taking away their accepted function, she asks what something becomes when it is not useful. The work digs in a bodily way into time passing, from childhood to parenting, with the reshuffling that collage allows.

Cate is also a co-founder and co-curator at Springs Projects, a non-profit gallery in Brooklyn.
