oil on panel, 10x8", 2019 (private collection) The Mind’s Eye - Beyond Words These are recent works that are still coming into the full form of understanding. They hover beyond the fathomable; in the outer reaches of mind beyond and outside words. Mythology is a metaphor for our reality. And words can help clarify the tangible form that bubbles out from the subconscious. In poetry, like painting, one can attempt an explanation of that which does not easily cross the boundary between experience and explanation. Perhaps through art there can exist a bridge. A link to something unseen yet hovering just there; the thing unsaid that is still blossoming along the periphery. Perhaps it grows more vivid with every attempt at failed description. Here there is more to articulate in paint and more to be said. From this place of seeking, paintings are birthed as the unknowable and intangible is pushed, pulled, and coerced into form. When we make inner power visible, we can sometimes allow others to grow new eyes to see. Song of the Birches The birches sang of longing As the way I held to the path grew false, intangible In its dreamlike coating Time became corrupted the pace of my steps wove the pathway outward Into certainty When I left the forest I kept only the eyes watching And the song I sang back As reality was strung more vivid, More fantastic A seasonless winter In the webbing of mind How I Remember It, A Poem The forest pulled inward To funnel my senses Across parallel experiences Into a column of attention It held me entranced A vortex of heightened perception To stand witness As time became corrupted, trivial My previous life awash With a false overlay As the way I held to the path Grew intangible And the pace of my steps Wove a new future outward Into unyielding certainty A voice, blue as open sky Not a whisper, Nor command, but a well spring Spoke of a future that is known Held there In the reaching tapestry In the peeling bark In the ancient moss I am not watched nor watching I participate In my stillness Every sense equal I walk away&nbsp; I walk back&nbsp; I walk toward Home Changed https://katelynalain.com/Vision-and-Metaphor-A-New-American-Epic-2017-19 Thu, 18 Jul 2019

oil on panel, 10x8", 2019 (private collection) About Vision and Metaphor: A New American Epic There is a need for a new American and world mythology that resonates with our fullest desires in this life right now. A need to see ourselves and our children living wholly empowered and legitimately respected. A need to see real faces that reflect the diversity and truth of the future. I envision the metaphorical journey of children to a new future where all are safe with the recognition that we are all brilliantly reflected in the souls of each other. When I began these paintings I asked myself what I needed to create in the world right now. The ideas and visions flowed in and while I worked to bring them to life more questions came up: what does true equality really look like? What would the story look like if the traditionally invisible were included in our historical context? What would it be like to walk through an art museum and see paintings that reflected our inner truth, power, and knowing? What would my work look like if I gave thanks to the unseen daughters of history by paying tribute to the wise leaders among us who must one by one and in unison reveal the real truth? What is the truth when we dismantle the limiting boxes and categories that cage us in? And where can true freedom exist if we don't allow openness, respect and understanding even for ourselves? I see a fresh future that is pushed into betterment by all hands on deck. I see new stories, new norms, and new leaders all around me. We are already moving swiftly over the water if we could just grab the oars and herald the young taking control of the boat. The oil paintings in this series and in The Great Crossing describe a New American Epic about the power and resilience of girls, lost youth, and children moving against the tide on their way to becoming future leaders. Each painting commemorates a moment in a greater narrative that highlights the inner strength, hope, diversity, and struggle of girls reclaiming their power. As part of this poetic and imagined nautical journey, children are depicted breaking free of limitations and using their own strength and skill to make their way at sea. I depict them in pivotal moments of challenge, despair, or enlightenment. In all of my work I explore the exuberance and distortion of the mind and memory perception as well as the beauty and strength of diverse personalities through great reverence for the painted portrait- both real and imagined. https://katelynalain.com/The-Great-Crossing-2015-18 Sat, 16 Jul 2016 03:47:00 +0000 Katelyn Alain https://katelynalain.com/The-Great-Crossing-2015-18 The Great

at Dedee Shattuck Gallery About The oil paintings in this series were the precursor to and then the unfolding of my New American Epic about the power and resilience of girls, lost youth, and children moving against the tide on their way to becoming future leaders. You will find some of these paintings included in Vision and Metaphor because there is overlap. Each painting commemorates a moment in a greater narrative that highlights the inner strength, hope, diversity, and struggle of girls reclaiming their power. As part of this poetic and imagined nautical journey, children are depicted breaking free of limitations and using their own strength and skill to make their way at sea. I depict them in pivotal moments of challenge, despair, or enlightenment. In all of my work I explore the exuberance and distortion of the mind and memory perception as well as the beauty and strength of diverse personalities through great reverence for the painted portrait- both real and imagined. https://katelynalain.com/Out-Of-Silence-2014-15 Thu, 11 Jun 2015 21:48:03 +0000 Katelyn Alain https://katelynalain.com/Out-Of-Silence-2014-15 Out of Silence —

https://katelynalain.com/KATELYN-ALAIN-CV-BIO-CONTACT-MORE-INFO Sat, 13 Mar 2021 19:01:50 +0000 Katelyn Alain https://katelynalain.com/KATELYN-ALAIN-CV-BIO-CONTACT-MORE-INFO BIO Katelyn Alain is a feminist thinker and figurative artist who has exhibited in solo and group shows at galleries across the United States including Jim Kempner Fine Art (New York, NY), Curtis Gallery (New Canaan, CT), Skotia Gallery (Santa Fe, NM), Thinkspace (Los Angeles, CA), Arcilesi Homberg Fine Art (New York, NY), and Dedee Shattuck Gallery (Westport, MA). Her work has been featured in publications including The Wall Street Journal, American Art Collector Magazine, Studio Visit Magazine, and Juxtapoz. In early 2020 she was a guest lecturer and visiting artist at Brooklyn College as part of the GASU visiting artist program.&nbsp;Alain received her BFA in Studio Art from Hartford Art School in 2001 and her MA and MFA in Painting at the University of Wisconsin-Madison in 2008. She studied painting at the Marchutz School in Aix-en-Provence, France in 1999-2000 and was a resident at Vermont Studio Center in 2007. Alain lives in Brooklyn, NY where she paints archetypes of inner power for a new world, writes poetry, receives visions, and conjures imagery from the deep well of divine feminine intelligence. Statement From The Curators of Katelyn AlainVision and Metaphor: A New American Epic Steeped in the academic tradition of painting, but with a unique contemporary perspective, Alain draws from the compositional structure, historical motifs, and virtuosic brushwork of master painters across a diverse range of genres. Referencing these artists and other contemporary images to equate visual context with well known history paintings Alain upends a tradition that glorifies and romanticizes the male figure and gaze. Painted in a palette of rich hues to deep blacks and browns, Alain’s works are centered on portraiture within an abstracted dreamscape, built with layers of vibrating oil paint. Her loose and tight gestures obscure and deconstruct a singular reading as the work actively describes the distortion of memory and the way the brain alters information and experiences over time. Collectively they evoke the fleeting nature of perception, time, and the loss implicit in memory while elevating the human struggle for wisdom and change.Alain’s new work is a singular and vital response to the current times and the work touches on a deep uneasiness- often depicting children isolated on the water- yet also heroically in charge of their own destiny or in moments of epiphany. Alain describes a need for a new mythology and this work responds, gives voice to, and continues a visual conversation that bridges the past and the now. We, the viewer, desire to explicate Alain’s figures, held in mutable suspense alighting somewhere between the past, the present, and the future unknown.-Christie Nichols and Susan Khiar, Curtis Gallery, New Canaan, CT Artist Statement for Vision and Metaphor: A New American Epic There is a need for a new mythology that resonates with our wants and desires in this life right now. A need to see ourselves and our children living wholly empowered and legitimately respected. A need to see real faces that reflect the truth the subconscious is already aware of. The recognition that we are all brilliantly reflected in the souls of others.When I began these paintings I asked myself what I needed to create in the world right now. The ideas and visions flowed in and while I worked to bring them to life more questions came up: what does true equality really look like? What would the story look like if the traditionally invisible were included in our historical context? What would it be like to walk through an art museum and see paintings that reflected our truth, power, and knowing? What would my work look like if I gave thanks to the unseen daughters of history by paying tribute to the wise leaders among us who must one by one and in unison reveal the real truth? What is the truth when we dismantle the limiting boxes and categories that cage us in? And where can true freedom exist if we don't allow openness, respect and understanding even for ourselves?I see a fresh future that is pushed into betterment by all hands on deck. I see new stories, new norms, and new leaders all around me. We are already moving swiftly over the water if we could just grab the oars and herald the young taking control of the boat. Artist Statement 2025 The girls in my paintings are inspired by the voices that have been silenced in the past and girls I witness speaking truth to power now - the diverse heroines, archetypes, and leaders of a vital new future. I distill current events, personal experiences and a feminist framework into a contemporary mythology of girls navigating the world with their inner power made visible. These children are conduits of divine feminine power existing in a metaphoric dreamscape beyond gender, expectation and the male gaze. Combining traditional oil painting techniques with abstractions from a rich inner experience, my life-sized characters are painted to be in contrast and conversation with romanticized history paintings in our institutions. Paintings have been used to uphold an American mythology steeped in the hierarchies and constructs of colonial patriarchy. But what is our shifting story now and what can we all honor and be proud of? By altering the traditional narrative to elevate and enshrine empowered young girls overcoming myriad challenges, it is my hope these works will be one voice floating in a sea of change to help herald a new paradigm where truth, respect, equality, sovereignty, and hope are emblematic of our collective identity. <img width="800" height="532" width_o="800" height_o="532" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/d34b8c3fb9635c3089451ce2e18658fd156bb39da722f19bd34f0f7d3005338e/demmy_4KatelynAlaininaResidence_o.jpg" data-mid="114455520" border="0" data-scale="100" alt="Katelyn Alain alongside Robert Motherwell in a collectors home." data-caption="Katelyn Alain alongside Robert Motherwell in a collectors home." src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/800/i/d34b8c3fb9635c3089451ce2e18658fd156bb39da722f19bd34f0f7d3005338e/demmy_4KatelynAlaininaResidence_o.jpg" /><img width="2320" height="3088" width_o="2320" height_o="3088" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/90c75135e919d108ef036c321d13fb7592a6e6a7efc732ced7f8c3d52eef7e05/StudioPortraitIG.jpg" data-mid="101937448" border="0" data-no-zoom src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/90c75135e919d108ef036c321d13fb7592a6e6a7efc732ced7f8c3d52eef7e05/StudioPortraitIG.jpg" /><img width="553" height="368" width_o="553" height_o="368" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/ad7d61095346afea016b4fa96a226b2c0be1834eddf7103b9277597def08e39a/Picture1.7.jpg" data-mid="101926378" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/553/i/ad7d61095346afea016b4fa96a226b2c0be1834eddf7103b9277597def08e39a/Picture1.7.jpg" /><img width="794" height="594" width_o="794" height_o="594" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/6c24ea2c0654b7ad8da75906aa1e46f5d2e37b3a54ad82ebf7313f7ee16f3ccf/Picture45.jpg" data-mid="101926381" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/794/i/6c24ea2c0654b7ad8da75906aa1e46f5d2e37b3a54ad82ebf7313f7ee16f3ccf/Picture45.jpg" /><img width="640" height="640" width_o="640" height_o="640" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/25641557f4ca39dee9f9c4b2263bdd9ccd873111fa9aae13e6417673bdbf7c30/MarchIssueJuxtapozGrumbacherAdWebsize.jpg" data-mid="101918757" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/640/i/25641557f4ca39dee9f9c4b2263bdd9ccd873111fa9aae13e6417673bdbf7c30/MarchIssueJuxtapozGrumbacherAdWebsize.jpg" /><img width="320" height="208" width_o="320" height_o="208" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/a7b12bd913c5dbfed5340d8c3efcd82a580e01ad8048f2fccc9b508b609d7370/americanartcollectarticle_o.jpg" data-mid="101918726" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/320/i/a7b12bd913c5dbfed5340d8c3efcd82a580e01ad8048f2fccc9b508b609d7370/americanartcollectarticle_o.jpg" /> <img width="928" height="568" width_o="928" height_o="568" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/f2e9c6b4b1c99c4649facf816e14f8d073c80efc6b30b1cbf626bc362be4ae2e/twaosvol1_01_3x3_o.jpg" data-mid="101918714" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/928/i/f2e9c6b4b1c99c4649facf816e14f8d073c80efc6b30b1cbf626bc362be4ae2e/twaosvol1_01_3x3_o.jpg" /> <img width="600" height="400" width_o="600" height_o="400" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/ce0c1f324fc6c5d31a4e9467f98893653bc723bde35e5a165cedd09dad359b42/StudioVisitMagazine17and18_o.jpg" data-mid="101918734" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/600/i/ce0c1f324fc6c5d31a4e9467f98893653bc723bde35e5a165cedd09dad359b42/StudioVisitMagazine17and18_o.jpg" /> <img width="1440" height="1800" width_o="1440" height_o="1800" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/2d3615b557a0cfefe4b5434b7f3f5d7d7fc9fb7158e68cf5d2f446598cd96eb9/studio-aug-2019.jpg" data-mid="101937440" border="0" data-scale="100" data-no-zoom src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/2d3615b557a0cfefe4b5434b7f3f5d7d7fc9fb7158e68cf5d2f446598cd96eb9/studio-aug-2019.jpg" /> CV EducationMFA 2008 Studio Art, Painting - University of Wisconsin-MadisonMA 2007 Studio Art - University of Wisconsin-MadisonBFA 2001 Studio Art, Art History Minor - Hartford Art School -Magna cum Laude1999-2000 Painting, Art History, French - Marchutz Painting School- Aix, FranceOne and Two Person Exhibitions2019 Vision and Metaphor: A New American Epic, Curtis Gallery, New Canaan, CT (solo)2015 Musing, Arcilesi Homberg Fine Art, New York, NY (two-person)2009 The Age Of Illuminated Phenomena, Skotia Gallery, Santa Fe, NM (solo)2008 Discovering Delirium: MFA Exhibition, University of Wisconsin-Madison, WI2007 How We Get Carried Away, ARTspace, Madison, WI2005 The Self-Portraits, Women’s Studies Research Center, Madison, WIGroup Exhibitions 2025 Peel Back, AHA Fine Art, New York, NY 2025 The Promise of Spring, Eleventh Hour Art, 18 E 50th Street, New York, NY 2024 Dream Archives, Eleventh Hour Art, Brooklyn, NY 2024 Faces &amp;
