KITTI - MODERN ARTIST
I LIKE TO GO BACK TO THE BOLDNESS AND SIMPLICITY OF THINGS, BACK TO THE BOLDNESS AND SIMPLICITY IN ART. SIMPLE LINES, SIMPLE COLOURS.
NADINE INGELGREN, KNOWN AS KITTI WAS BORN AND RAISED IN SWITZERLAND. SHE MOVED TO LONDON AT AGE 19 TO STUDY & PURSUE A CAREER IN THE FASHION INDUSTRY. AFTER STUDYING ARTS & SCIENCE AT CATS COLLEGE IN CAMBRIDGE, SHE GRADUATED WITH A (BA) IN SURFACE AND TECHNOLOGY IN TEXTILES AT LONDON COLLEGE OF FASHION. SHE WORKED FOR DESIGNERS SUCH AS BURBERRY, DIANE VON FURSTENBERG, VIVIENNE WESTWOOD AND VICTORIA BECKHAM. SHE ALSO WORKED FOR THE MELINDA & BILL GATES FOUNDATION.
HER EXPERIENCE IN CREATING FABRICS AND PATTERN AND HER LOVE FOR ANIMALS HAVE BECOME VERY CLEAR THROUGHOUT HER DESIGN CAREER.
SHE FOCUSES TO PAINT ON CANVAS, LEATHER GOODS, SUCH AS HANDBAGS, JACKETS, SHOES, ON SMALL PAPER ( CLOTH TAGS, RECEITS AND SHOPPING BAGS. BECAUSE SHE BELIEVES "YOU CAN TURN EVEN THE SMALLEST PIECE OF PAPER INTO A PIECE OF ART."
