ABOUT THE ARTIST:
Katarina is a contemporary artist whose work resides at the intersection of fine art and high-end architectural design. Based on a philosophy of "living art," she has become the preferred choice for leading real estate designers seeking to anchor their most prestigious interiors in London, Dubai, and the United States.
Her practice is defined by its bespoke nature. Rather than producing for the traditional gallery circuit, Katarina works almost exclusively on a commission basis, creating site-specific collections that respond to the light, scale, and atmosphere of world-class properties. This collaborative approach ensures that each piece is not merely a decoration but a fundamental component of the home’s identity.
Known for her mastery of texture and depth, Katarina’s aesthetic is both emotive and disciplined. Her refusal to engage in mass public exhibitions has created a closed-market ecosystem, making her paintings a hallmark of discretion and taste. To own a piece by Katarina is to possess a work that was likely never intended for the public eye, but rather born from a private dialogue between the artist and the world’s most refined living spaces.
Katarina's works are in private collections in Luxembourg, Copenhagen, Palm Springs; Australia and Germany.
Katarina Joys studied Algebra and Geometry in Munich, after which she spent 3 years sailing to remote islands in South America and North America, searching for new geometric shapes in cold and hot climates, in search of mathematical perfection through the spontaneity of the natural world. A coexistence of rhythms are numbers, logic and illogical are what moves her painting.

Katarina's works are in private collections in Luxembourg, Copenhagen, Palm Springs; Australia and Germany.
Katarina Joys studied Algebra and Geometry in Munich, after which she spent 3 years sailing to remote islands in South America and North America, searching for new geometric shapes in cold and hot climates, in search of mathematical perfection through the spontaneity of the natural world. A coexistence of rhythms are numbers, logic and illogical are what moves her painting.
The Artist’s Edge
Katarina’s unique vision was forged during a three-year sailing expedition across the Americas. There, she discovered a "mathematical perfection" within the wild rhythms of the sea and wind. Her work is a masterful coexistence of logical structure and spontaneous, gestural brushwork.

About the Artist
Biography: Katarina Joys (b. 1952) is a contemporary artist based in London. Her practice is deeply rooted in her academic background in Algebra and Geometry, which she studied in Munich. This foundation informs the underlying logic and "numbers" that move her paintings.
