Caitlin Emma Perkins

I’m a thrifty Yankee girl from northern New Hampshire. I went to a three-room schoolhouse in the village of Jackson. My work includes prints, artist books and installations and draws heavily on the visual vernacular of urban streets and historical collections. I’m particularly obsessed with 19th century sea exploration, natural science museums and menageries.

A new set of interactive works are on the way. I’m doing a show at the Bucks County Community College, Hicks Art Center Gallery. These were inspired by the photobooth that I built as part of the Handjob show curated by Courtney Dailey last March.

Here’s the link to my sketchbook for the project:
That Only You and I Can Know

I’m really excited about the work, and I’ll start posting images about it shortly.

The exhibition opens to the public August 27, and a reception on Wednesday, September 18th. I’ll be doing a public tshirt printing event on Saturday, October 18th. Hope to see you there.

much love,
Caitlin
