Isa Catto states, “I believe art can be suggestive and thought provoking, yet still be beautiful and infused with whimsy. I am first and foremost a colorist, and that sensibility informs both my paintings and collages, no matter what their content or subject may be. More often than not, that content or subject has roots in the natural, organic world or in the eternal, universal expressiveness of symbols. I have always found beauty and relevance in recurring symbols and in the realms of mythology and the subconscious, and I draw primarily from this language and these images in my work.”
