About Katie Burdon
Katie Burdon is a Cornish photographer currently living in London, UK. Interested in exploring the human body in relation to the natural form her practice has a strong focus on the female gaze maintained throughout her work. Through a juxtaposition of color and narrative with surreal undertones, she aims to bring curiosity and observance out in the viewer. She is involved in all aspects of the image making process, from concept, art direction, casting and editing.
STATEMENT
“At its essence, my work has always related back to my own body; reflections of pleasure, pain, growth - inviting introspection into the ambiguity and complexity of emotions. I hope for a personal layer to manifest in my work that acts as bridge of empathy towards viewers, Multi-layered metaphysical symbiosis are translated into scenes of familiarity with surreal undertones, creating a unique, female-focused, vision, driven by imagination with feminist socio-political issues at the heart of my practice.” - Katie Burdon
