Kate Jackling

Bio

Born and raised in the vibrant city of London, Kate is a distinguished photographer whose artistic journey is deeply rooted in her fervor for analogue photography. Her formative years spent in darkrooms have honed her technical expertise, particularly in large format photography, and her diverse influences—ranging from the innovative spirit of the Bauhaus movement to the evocative narratives found in cinema and the beauty of the everyday—have shaped a unique aesthetic that defines her work in still life. Kate masterfully intertwines elegance and simplicity, skillfully experimenting with reflections to create compositions that evoke an intimate dialogue between objects, light, and space. Her thoughtful approach transforms ordinary subjects into profound visual experiences, inviting viewers to pause and reflect. Currently splitting her time between Munich, London, Paris, and New York, Kate thrives in her studio, where she revels in the solitude of creation for days on end. Yet, she equally cherishes moments spent outdoors, drawing inspiration from the natural world and the interplay of daylight.
