Katherine Salter is a visual artist born in Croydon Surrey on 3rd May 1977. Salter’s photographs invite the audience to question the purpose of their content. She endeavours to allow the viewer to interpret her photographs in their own unique way, rather than telling the audience how they should think or feel about a subject. Her recent work is particularly focused on capturing emotion and mood through portraiture. Her use of light and shadow to create atmosphere and express emotion using both people and objects in her photographs, strives to elicit a personal response from her audience.
