Kate Wilson’s work Cold Drive encompasses industrial/apocalyptic scenes and wastelands, botanical studies from a seemingly other dimension pierced with intersecting power lines and the occasional derelict drive-in theatre. Cold Drive is a series of works on paper that combines a sense of optimism with a strange and foreboding atmosphere.
