The setting, inspired by one of Kate’s own photographs, depicts an artificially lit pool embedded within the natural landscape. This tension between the manufactured and the organic is central to the work. At its core, the painting speaks to divine feminine power—a contemporary Birth of Venus. There is an ethereal strength in the figure’s emergence, an almost embryonic quality, as if suspended in a state of transformation. The pool itself takes on the role of an amniotic sac, a space of potential and becoming. Yet, amidst these symbolic layers, Kate deliberately grounds the scene in the everyday—the presence of a pool noodle and floaty subtly disrupting the mythic, anchoring the work in the mundane, a reminder of the contemporary and the ordinary within the mystical.
