Diana Thater CAT A IS digital print with phrase cat, a is in italic font on white canvas

color iris print // CAT A IS by Diana Thater, a limited edition digital print on canvas from 1996, uses minimal text to evoke a sense of playfulness and introspection. The piece presents the phrase cat, a is in elegant italicized font, positioned centrally on a white canvas, disrupting typical grammatical order. Thater’s work often explores themes of perception and language, prompting viewers to reconsider the structure and meaning of familiar words. Here, by altering the word sequence, she introduces ambiguity and invites contemplation about language's role in shaping understanding. This subtle piece is both thought-provoking and visually understated.

What is ‘light and space’?

The Light and Space Movement refers to loosely affiliated art movements connected to minimalism, geometric abstraction, and op art that originated in Southern California in the 1960s. Greatly influenced by artist John McLaughlin, these artists focused on sensory phenomena such as light, perception, and space as central elements of their work. They also incorporated cutting-edge technologies from the aerospace and engineering industries to develop light-filled and sensuous objects, creating immersive experiences that emphasize the viewer's perception.
