Catherine Sweet is a self-taught visual artist from London who created BobCat Gallery to sell her own work and showcase beautiful, affordable and original artwork on a small scale and give emerging artists a positive selling experience. Catherine creates small-scale abstract pieces inspired by music and the natural world that people can easily find space for in their homes. BobCat Gallery focuses on small-scale, original and affordable artwork. They also host pop-up exhibitions across London, as well as heading to affordable art fairs to showcase work from their portfolio of international artists. The name for the gallery is inspired by Catherine's friend Robert Miller (known as Bob), who passed away in 2010. Bob was an incredibly talented artist himself, and Catherine (often known as Cat) wanted to honour his memory. In this episode, Catherine and Simon dive into the topic of fear.
