Recent work by Kate Sully

In her latest work, Kate Sully explores the Seven Deadly Sins, she takes the themes of Covet, Sloth, Envy, Gluttony, Anger, Pride and Lust as her source and investigates them through a range of photographic, sculptural and mixed media based work. The result is an extensive and challenging exhibition, which reflects both the aspirations and sins within contemporary society.

Sully uses the familiar everyday object, the Bag, as her tool to scrutinise and reveal the ideologies of the Seven Deadly Sins. Our perception of this functional item is put into question as it takes on a metamorphosis. At first glance the work appears beautiful and inviting but on closer inspection its disturbing connotations are exposed.

Through out all the work, the Bag has been subverted and manipulated to demonstrate the apparent demise of today¹s culture. Sullys work comments on the over indulgence of western society and our fascination with consumerism and vanity. As with her work in The Last Supper exhibition at Rotherham Art Gallery, Sully highlighted our betrayal of earthly riches for those of artificial worth. Ultimately she seeks to engage the viewer initially with her deceiving, alluring work and then expose a more sinister underbelly.

Kate lives and works in Yorkshire.
