Kate Lycett
Having been previously based in Sheffield where she had numerous exhibitions in the city’s galleries, she is now making a name for herself in Calderdale and is currently exhibiting work in The Calder Gallery, Harrison Lord Gallery, Old Chapel Gallery and the Dean Clough viaduct Cafe.
Kate takes her influences from the local landscape, and is also inspired by the work of Schiele, Klimt and Hundertwasser.
With a background in Textile Design the influence of surface pattern is always present in Kate’s work. Even with figurative and landscape pieces she reduces elements to flat pattern, and embellishes with embroidery, collage or gold leaf.
For any visitors to this site more familiar with the name Kate Pope; Kate has always signed her work with her maiden name of Lycett, and so to avoid confusion she has chosen to work professionaly as Kate Lycett from now on.
