Katrina Chenevert: Mixed Media Artist and Soft Sculpture Designer
Katrina Chenevert is an Asheville-based artist whose professional practice is defined by a fluid movement between two-dimensional and three-dimensional disciplines. With a BA in Art focusing on Sculpture from the University of North Carolina at Asheville, she brings a strong technical foundation to her varied creations. Katrina Chenevert operates from her home studio, where she produces a range of work including intricate soft sculptures, 3D assemblages, and large-scale installations. Her 2D works primarily utilize watercolor, acrylic, and oil, often selected based on the specific theme or composition of the subject matter. One of the hallmarks of her style is a distinctive whimsical flair, frequently rendered through a Pop art lens with satirical interpretations that challenge traditional genre boundaries. Katrina Chenevert has a notable exhibition history, with her work showcased at prestigious venues such as the Salmagundi Club for the American Watercolor Society and various galleries in the River Arts District. Her professional experience also includes gallery ownership and curation, reflecting a deep engagement with the local and national art communities. By intentionally working in 'uncategorized' genres, she creates unique pieces that offer a fresh perspective on contemporary mixed media. Art enthusiasts, curators, and collectors are invited to explore her portfolio of paintings and sculptures, which remain rooted in a playful yet critical exploration of themes and materials.
