Three-Person Exhibition, Suspect Terrain, 2026
Caitlin Blomstrom is an artist and arts professional with experience working in non-profits, gallery administration, and project management. She holds a BFA in Painting and Printmaking from Virginia Commonwealth University in Richmond, VA.
Painting allows Blomstrom to hold onto the fleeting landmarks of everyday life before they disappear. Through light, shadow, and quietly familiar imagery, she creates oil paintings that exist as poetic documentation of spaces in her life that are tied to memory, routine, and nostalgia within the Southern landscape.
Blomstrom focuses on quiet encounters and overlooked scenes during daily walks or routines. She comes to painting through the lens of photography, and her compositions are deeply informed by the camera’s framing. She works both en plein air and in the studio using photographs she has taken. She typically works on a small scale, allowing her to capture moments quickly while inviting viewers to step closer, almost as if examining a photographic negative.
