Katharina Grosse — This is Not My Cat
Katharina Grosse

This is Not My Cat

Katharina Grosse's *This is Not My Cat* features her signature explosive application of acrylic paint, sprayed in bold, sweeping bursts of vivid color across irregularly shaped forms of polystyrene, plywood, and resin. The work dissolves the boundaries between painting and sculpture, as pigment floods and unifies the disparate materials into a single, disorienting composition. Grosse's characteristically anarchic approach challenges conventional notions of surface and space, transforming the physical support into an immersive, almost hallucinatory experience.
