Cat Yen is an artist and designer based in Sydney, Australia. Curious by the quiet ways people interact with their surroundings, she creates work that offers pause - playfully transforming overwhelming emotion into stillness. Drawing from design principles, her compositions balance structure and whimsy, giving flat shapes depth and static elements movement. After years working as a digital designer, Cat deliberately avoids any computer assistance, conceptualising and painting every work by hand. Graduating from UNSW’s College of Fine Arts with a B. of Design in 2014, Cat has worked across a diverse range of disciplines including jewellery, eyewear, marketing, web and digital design.

Avoid exposure to rain, water and moisture. Do not spot clean. Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, and avoid leaving in the sun for extended periods. This piece can be hung decoratively on the wall using the internal black strap on a wall hook.
