Drawing from, with & together is at the core of & catalyst for my practice. Over extended periods Kate works alongside communities to consider, reveal & celebrate how they improvise & imagine at times of stress. Settings include parks, plotlands, farms, asylum seeker centres & museums - places where people make do with few resources & are driven by limitations. Outcomes of this co produced work can include drawings, exhibitions, events, participatory programs, strategic organisational & community development. Over 25 years Kate has explored how meaningful opportunities to get involved with great art & culture can empower and nurture. Kate has delivered long-term commissions for multiple regional & national partners including YSP, Metal, 14/18 Now, Leeds Art Gallery and Hull City of Culture. She has undertaken ACE and British Council funded work including long term inter-disciplinary and cross regional work in collaboration with academics, artists and organisations. This includes international residencies in Venice, Rotterdam and Gdansk.
