New sculpture and video works. His work often addresses the interaction between humans and nature. This exhibit develops this concept with free-standing ceramic animals, such as rabbits, birds and deer.
New sculpture and video works
Joshua Katcher is a video artist, filmmaker, and sculptor living in
Williamsburg, Brooklyn. He graduated from the BFA program in Art
Video at Syracuse University, New York in 2003. His video work has
been exhibited internationally in festivals such as The Rotterdam
International Film Festival, Cannes, and The New York Underground
Film Festival. His music videos have been nominated for awards, and
are in circulation on networks such as MTV and Much Music. Joshua is
equally prolific with his sculpture and exhibits regularly through
Figureworks.
This upcoming exhibition at Figureworks will be the first to combine
his sculpture and video. Joshua's work often addresses the
interaction between humans and nature. This exhibit develops this
concept with free-standing ceramic animals, such as rabbits, birds,
and deer, that are positioned in elaborately detailed cloaks. Their
clothing expose a complex story-line involving nature's struggle and
survival in a world where human intervention has created chaos. Wall
work will include related videos and an installation of small ceramic
faces that, when massed, will again relay this message of humanity
crowding into nature.
