Artist Curated Screening with Kate Stone
Live Event
June 7, 2024, 7:00 – 9:00pm
Kate Stone works within a range of media, including sculpture, installation and animation to explore her interest in the potential of quotidian architectural structures to reveal the “uncanny” within. She writes, “Drawing inspiration from myths, conspiracy theories, quantum physics, anatomy and horror tropes, I construct liminal worlds that exist somewhere between interior and exterior, between reality and superstition, between architecture and the body. They are psychological spaces that are often in the midst of transformation, being overtaken by natural, supernatural or invisible forces. These forces serve as stand-ins for the anxiety that current world events bring into our personal lives and private spaces.”
Stone received a BA from Bard College and an MFA from Parsons the New School for Design. She has been awarded the Tierney Fellowship, The Lotos Foundation Prize, an FST StudioProjects Grant and a Kone Foundation Grant. She has attended residencies at NARS Foundation, Artists Alliance LES Studio Program, Kone Foundation, MASS MoCA and Mudhouse Residency in rural Greece. Her work has been exhibited at 601Artspace, bitforms gallery, Cuchifritos Gallery + Project Space, Dinner Gallery, FiveMyles, Ortega y Gasset Projects, Rubber Factory, Spring Break Art Show, South Bend Museum of Art, The Museum of Broken Relationships and Transmitter Gallery, among others.
