Katarina Janečková Walshe was born in Bratislava, Slovakia, and lives and works in Corpus Christi, TX. Katarina works across media, employing paper, canvas, bedsheets, and a wide array of mark-making tools to skewer received notions of authentic culture, gender norms, sexual expression, national pride, social progress, and age-appropriate behaviors. Her process is free-ranging, improvisational, and fearless, and she uses her own sexuality, motherhood, and identity as a painter as characters in the scenes she envisions.
