About the Artist
I once found a small action figure lying on the floor. I picked it up and felt I
was rescuing a survivor who had made it through a very difficult life. That
day I was inspired to look for a way to combine many of these forgotten
toys into a sculptural work and create new icons, shaped by hundreds of
different stories coexisting in harmony and breathing life into a new
being ... a being that will hopefully live much longer.

CateKarate is a Visual artist based in Miami, FL. Her
inspirations surge from her travels and multicultural
background, her development in colors and techniques are
mostly born in her momentarily presence.
Cate born in Miami, FL in the late 1980s, raised in
Cali, Colombia. until she was 14 years old. Her family
then decided to move to Germany.
She finished her Bachelor of Arts in Photography in
Stuttgart.
After college, she went back to America. Where she started
painting in an abstract form of acrylic, a year later she
returned to Miami and did her first art exhibition. Painting a
lot with spray paint and mixed media.
At the moment she resides in Miami, inspiring her
homeland.
As one of her main projects is the Colour Senses Art
Collective Gallery helping emerging artists and the
community of Miami to surge in the light.
Appears to have an alluring effect, almost as if it were to pull the viewer into the canvas.
The inspiration for the motion and color in each of her paintings is a reflection of the
Music which she listens to while painting, specific to each individual piece.
Any goal is achievable if you persevere in achieving it. I depicted a woman on the hood of the Ferrari car, and there is no coincidence.
Ferrari has the symbol of a horse, at least that's what the company says, and in my work it symbolizes a horse. In some cultures there is such an expression - "to ride the horse", it means to be at the top of the game, to become a winner, to get what you want.
And Persistence is the key to success.
Comprised of 13 individual and unique pieces inspired by Leonardo Da Vinci’s Last Supper mural, painted during the Italian High Renaissance dated 1495 -1498.
Each sculpture represents our last supper should we not act immediately and do something about Climate change and the rising water level.
In Da Vinci’s, Last Supper , he captures the moment in which Christ tells his apostles “Truly, truly I say to you, one of you will betray me “
In our case, all of us have betrayed our beautiful planet and it will take all of us united, not only to undo all the damage we have created but to help each other through the consequences of our actions.
Each piece has a different color acrylic signifying the different colors of the oceans, including the receding Ice cap. The Jesus figure is in gold.
The materials used in each sculpture are recycled and reused materials.
The entire 13 pieces will be in the MuFe Museum of Contemporary Art Permanent Collection in Cancun Mexico, starting in May 2023.
