Flourish No. 3 reflects my long connection to the landscapes of the Far South Coast of New South Wales, where I live and work. The piece began with photographic fragments of Australian flora — plants I’ve long admired for their resilience and quiet beauty — layered into a luminous circular form and set against a digitally generated background. This interplay between the organic and the artificial speaks to the ways nature and technology now meet and reshape one another. The circle, echoing both the globe and the cycles of nature, symbolises birth, growth, and renewal. For me, Flourish No. 3 is a meditation on resilience and adaptation — a reminder that even under pressure, life persists and re-emerges. With its vibrant colour and circular symmetry, the work creates a strong focal point in a space. It carries warmth and freshness, balancing energy with calm, and brings an atmosphere that feels both contemporary and deeply connected to nature.

Katherine Boland is an award-winning multidisciplinary artist living and working on the Far South Coast of New South Wales. Her practice spans digital media, photography, experimental techniques and non-traditional media and processes. Across these forms, she explores the tension between beauty and vulnerability in the natural world—highlighting both its resilience and its increasing fragility in the face of ecological disruption.

Since the Black Summer bushfires that devastated her region, Katherine's practice has become more focused on environmental themes and the realities of a warming planet. ​Her recent work incorporates emerging technologies to reimagine landscapes and ecosystems in ways that foster emotional connection, ecological awareness, and a deeper sense of responsibility.

In 2020, Katherine was selected to participate in OUTPUT: Art After Fire, an international pilot project funded by the Australian Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade, which brought together artists from southeast Australia and the American West to respond creatively to bushfire trauma and recovery.

Her work has been featured in global forums including the DigitalArt4Climate Art Award at the 2021 United Nations Climate Conference in Glasgow, and Art Speaks Out exhibitions at the 2022, 2023, and 2024 UN Climate Conferences in Egypt, Dubai, and Azerbaijan. In 2023, her painting Fire Flower No. 8—created using fire itself—was presented by the Australian Prime Minister as an official gift to President Joe Biden at the White House.

Katherine has received several major Australian art prizes, including the 2023 National Capital Art Prize (Sustainability category), the 2023 Burrinja Climate Change Biennale Art Award, and the 2009 Heysen Prize for Interpretation of Place. In addition to her visual arts practice, Katherine is the author of the memoir Hippy Days, Arabian Nights (Wild Dingo Press, 2017) and holds a Graduate Diploma in Therapeutic Arts Practice from the Melbourne Institute of Experiential and Creative Art Therapies (MIECAT).
