Katie is interested in the role that artists and creative actions can play in activating spaces, energising those involved in its production and inspiring new ways of approaching challenging conversations or experimental ideas, and these interests drive the projects that she develops – both as part of an individual practice and through her collaborative work with a variety of people.

Through her work Katie has learned the importance of community in co-creation and imagining creative practice, the idea that art has the power to change lives and give people a voice in re-imagining their local environments and communities.

Katie’s previous projects include permanent public artworks, temporary site-specific or participatory works, sculpture, hand lettering, and sound based installations. A diverse collection of skills and making processes allows Katie to approach a wide variety of contexts, ideas and peoples by applying the most appropriate skill set to a project.
