ABOUT CAT Buffington

Cat Buffington  is a multi-media artist based in Nashville, TN. From the perspective of an adoptee, she explores alternate realities and the emotional weight of belonging through a multidisciplinary practice that blends performance, sculpture, quilting, and found objects, informed by attachment theory. Arches, pockets, and transitory spaces like stairs symbolize the tension between presence and absence, inviting viewers to engage with vulnerability and authenticity. She navigates the interplay of control and chaos through her idiosyncratic logic, creating a dialogic space that fosters human connection and reflects personal and cultural narratives.
