Catherine Pilgrim’s practice includes lithographs, drawings and textiles – with absence, contemporary still life and historical narratives of women influencing much of the subject matter.

Catherine has exhibited widely since 1994, when she returned to Australia after studying lithography and drawing in Washington DC, USA. In 2011 Catherine completed her Master of Fine Art (Research) at Monash University, Melbourne. Her research was based on the subjective process of capture, which occurs in making a representational image.

This highly nuanced work has won a number of awards including the Australian Print Workshop Collie Trust Award. Catherine’s works are held in public and private collections including the National Gallery of Australia, Geelong Regional Art Gallery, National Australia Bank, Perri Cutten and Castlemaine Art Museum.
