    Gold in Fine Art / Still Life

I like to use birds and feathers to convey my thoughts. By using these beautiful birds, my messages come across gently, avoiding harshness. I don’t intend to be preachy; I prefer a softer approach with a touch of humor. This way, I can share what's on my mind without overwhelming others. The birds reflect our habits, which can sometimes seem entrenched and quite peculiar. In reality, we humans are the true odd birds.

Kaat Stieber is a fine art photographer who weaves the worlds of surrealism and noble Dutch art into her images. Mixing her broad set of creative skills with an internationally acclaimed background in theatre and costume design, her photos are assembled with vast craftmanship. Kaat's works of art resemble tableaus from the Dutch Golden Age, a rich realm of paintings and a constant source of identification. An admiration of surrealists adds to the scene.
