About
Dr Catherine Hahn is an artist, social researcher and lecturer. She is currently a visiting Research and Knowledge Exchange Fellow at Goldsmiths with Migrant Futures and working on Queer Along the River. She has taught extensively in Visual Cultures at Goldsmiths and Art History at Kent and is an alumnus of The Slade and Michaelis Fine Art schools. Her PhD is on the Iziko South African National Gallery: The Political House of Art (2016).
Catherine uses free-hand ink drawing, mapping and photography to build intimate relationships with the past, challenge reductive history-telling and surface activism. Drawing Out includes the Queer Along the River project, museum detours, collaborations and links to publications and resources. Catherine’s methodology weaves writing, walking and art. Through mobile, multi-modal praxis she explores possibilities beyond master narratives and binaries.
