Cat Hamilton
Artist
I am a synesthetic photo artist. I interpret personalities and music visually and through video. My work is being used in an app for meditation and I have been featured, exhibited and published in several online galleries and publications. I am currently working towards having an immersive exhibition.
Synesthesia
I love being creative! Photography is my favourite way of expressing. I class myself as an abstract photo artist. My practice is grounded in my meditation practice and synesthesia where I interpret people and music visually.
A lot of my personal work is self portraits where I capture the situation in colour, motion and shapes. I like to think of it as capturing the spirit of myself. I also do this for others through 1-2-1 commissions. It feels more expressive for me rather than a literal representation of what someone looks like.
I also create visual interpretations of sounds; be that a song, a voice, your children/child or something else personal to you.
When asked how I do it, I usually answer witch craft and an editing software! I always get a laugh but that is really how I see it. My authentic way of expressing is unique to me and not something I could teach someone to do.

I am a synesthetic photo artist interpreting the world the way I see it through blended senses. A lot of my work is self portraits expressing different emotions and feelings visually and in abstract ways so it is more about who I am rather than what I - or my subjects - look like. www.cathamilton.co.uk www.instagram.com/cathamilton.photoart
