the artist

Kath Leone is a London-based screenprint artist and textile designer whose imaginative works draw on nature’s intricacies and her own synaesthetic perception of colour. Originally from Cape Town, she brings a vivid sense of rhythm and glow to her compositions, blending botanical forms with surreal, otherworldly hues. Exploring Waltham Forest’s hidden green spaces, Kath finds endless wonder in the minute details of life. Her prints offer windows into parallel worlds – delicate, radiant studies of how colour, form, and feeling intertwine.

the story

Inspired by the Fly Agaric mushroom – the red-capped, white-spotted wonder of myths and legends – ‘So Fly’ celebrates the magical side of the natural world. Tiny fairies frolic among the foliage, echoing centuries of art and folklore that have surrounded the Amanita muscaria. Found in Epping Forest in autumn, these vivid mushrooms still feel like something from a storybook. For Kath, spotting one is a small act of enchantment – a reminder that we live close to fairyland, where wonder can appear beneath the trees at any time.
