Cat Tams is an award-winning artist who graduated from Glasgow School of Art in 2023 with a First-Class degree in Fine Art. Working across painting, drawing and printmaking, her practice is centered around still life, landscape, and memory. Her work explores how places and objects are read, remembered and reimagined through close observation, material experimentation, and sustained engagement with drawing as a thinking tool.

“Painting is very much back on the agenda this year, as it is at all the Scottish degree shows. Cat Tams’ still lifes are a highlight. She is interested in what paint can do, exploring light and colour through objects”

“Cat Tams is a sensitive and vigilant observer of her environment and is gifted in her ability to apply painterly techniques - the layering of pastels and oil paint with sophisticated motion creates a lush quality. With particular attention to light, colour and form she creates an interplay between volume and surface. Capturing the influence of her environment, Cat translates it into figurative works with intellectual response”
