About The Artist |
 |
Kate was born in Sheffield. She spent her formative years living in the Channel Islands and went to Goldsmiths College where she studied under Sir Ivor Robert-Jones. She took a post graduate qualification in foundry techniques and then worked in Poplar, making her one of the first women in the UK to work in a commercial foundry. Kate has worked for 30 years as a sculptor, working both on her own creative pieces and on private and public commissions. She has exhibited broadly throughout the UK and South Africa, and was elected to the Royal Society of British Sculptors in 1993. She lives in Lavenham, Suffolk, where she also has her studio. |

Press Comment "When Denton's creatures are caught in the middle of movement ... the illusion is as perfect as in stop-motion photography. Better, indeed, since it exists in three dimensions rather than two. But when they are at rest the effect is even more dynamic, because the muscles are tense, the whole body poised for action." John Russell Taylor; Art Critic of The Daily Telegraph "I saw the pieces as they were being unpacked ... and I came away breathless at the sheer vitality in her work, which brings to mind Rodin and Epstein." Gordon Young; Art Critic of The Jersey Evening Post "The sculpture is a magnificent, striking figure and I have received lots of letters, phone calls and e-mails saying what a moving and impressive occasion it was" Graham Stuart, Secretary to the West Malling Airfield Memorial Group "Simply awesome and totally unreviewable" Michael Coulson; Art Critic of the Johannesburg Financial Mail |
