Kat Rae is an artist who works across an incredible variety of media. Her confronting work, Deathmin, was recently recognised as winner of the 2024 Napier Waller Art Prize and represents the fourth time Kat has been shortlisted for this prestigious award. In this podcast, Kat talks about her artistic journey, including her first career within the Australian Army during which time she met her husband Andrew.

11:30 Kat’s time at ADFA – the Australian Defence Force Academy
15:00 The Royal Military College Duntroon – not as much fun as ADFA….
16:00 Into the big world of Army – Kat’s military career, including a stint within the prestigious Australian Federation Guard
23:00 The tragic death of Kat’s husband Andrew
29:00 Kat discusses her Napier Waller prizewinning piece, Deathmin
