"First Dates" Series
A series of watercolors depicts plugs and sockets of different standards as participants in a first encounter. The possibility of contact is determined by their design: it may happen immediately, require an intermediary, or never take place. The fluidity of watercolor softens the technical precision of the objects, turning a test of compatibility into an awkward introduction.
In her practice, Katya focuses on how elusive inner states can take on material form. She works with bioplastic, ceramics, and objects that evoke vessels of experience: capsules, cassette tapes, everyday forms, shells, and surfaces.
She is interested in the moment when a personal experience ceases to be solely personal and becomes recognizable to others. To this end, she turns to simple, familiar forms and materials capable of holding fragility, anxiety, the passage of time, and traces of human presence.
In these works, the body and consciousness emerge as spaces of limitation, memory, and resistance: as repositories of experience that both define boundaries and seek ways to transcend them.
