Kodachroma w/ Katherine Claypole: August 23rd, 2024

Kodachroma is an exhibition by Whanganui-based artist Katherine Claypole. It weaves colour and handstitching to create a flash of vividness in the midst of winter. The title is a play on Kodachrome, a reference to Katherine’s interest in this medium and the aesthetic of the ’70s.

Katherine advises the viewer to move around the work and experience it from different angles to enjoy its full optical potential.

Beth spoke to Katherine about Kodachroma and her artmaking processes.
