Cate Godwin is a printmaker whose practice is grounded in both intaglio and relief processes. Her work explores interior and exterior environments through landscape and still life, often incorporating a Pacific context. Drawing on her background in textile design, she creates original patterns inspired by local plants and natural textures, reflecting a strong interest in surface and repetition. Godwin’s practice continues to evolve, with recent work moving into mixed media painting as she explores a looser, more abstract approach. She studied under John Drawbridge and Kate Coolahan at Wellington Polytechnic, completing a Diploma in Textile Design, and later gained a Postgraduate Diploma of Fine Arts from Massey University, alongside a Diploma of Teaching. With over 25 years’ experience teaching visual art at secondary level, she brings depth and discipline to her practice.
