Katinka Huang

Katinka Huang (b. 1998, Shanghai, China) is an artist based in New York City.

Being raised in a female centric environment, Katinka has always been fascinated by the enigma and depth of the female psyche. katinka’s upbringing influenced her to tell stories with the female body. Elements of the female form are deconstructed and juxtaposed to build fresh narratives around womanhood. These accounts are rooted from moments of dissociation, where Katinka depart from reality and enter into a space of play. Within the canvas, Katinka liberate the female identity to embody crudeness, childlike innocence, fury and profound sadness— while their bodies undergo a metamorphosis, fragmenting, dissolving, or emerging anew. Katinka’s dissociative bouts are a temporary escape from the reality of womanhood, it allows her to reimagine femininity in all its contradictions.

Katinka has exhibited in numerous group shows both nationally and internationally, including Salon Beyond Lobotomy, in Paris (2019), General Expenses, in Mexico City (2022), Lux Feminae in Long Island City, NY (2022), Echo Box and After Eden at LatchKey Gallery in NY (2023), Earthquake Relief Benefit Auction at Ethan Cohen Gallery in NY (2023), Really From at NYC Culture Club, NY (2023), Genesis at Chambers Fine Art in upstate NY (2023), A Happy Beginning at Latitude Gallery in NY (2023), Heart of a Tiger, a benefit for Planned Parenthood in NY ( 2023), Lo Que Tú Ves, Galeria Leyendecker, in Tenerife (2023), Allegory of Redemption at Galeria Caylus (2024),  Katinka Participated in the Spring Break Art Fair (2023) and Arco Madrid (2024).
