Kathiucia Dias, also known as 'Kat', was born in Brazil and at an early age moved to the U.S., east coast specifically, where she stayed through college. Sick of the snow, she migrated to the West coast, happy to park and call L.A. home for over a decade now. Professionally, Kat started off working as a painter (prototype and conceptual) for the entertainment industry until she decided to pursue a career in Fine Art. Since then, she has further pursued an education, modeled, taught at various schools, and has sold and worked with galleries in shows all over the country.
As an artist Kat seeks to unfold visual narratives with her work. Whether they be active or passive, her focus is the idea, or rather, the 'read' of the painting. Hopefully this provides the viewer with not only a stimulating visual experience, but also with substance as he/she search and discover their own meaning behind the composition and the various elements placed within in it, like puzzle pieces falling together into one.
