Kate grew up in many places, always making things, refining techniques and experimenting. As an adult, they came out of university with two degrees in German, a subject that I was not sure I really liked anymore, and experience in seeing the world through the lens of different cultures. After pursuing various retail positions, translation, and a couple of jobs that required wearing an absurd amount of hats. Eventually, making had to be a priority in life even if it didn’t pay the bills. In addition to many day-job-hats, Kate is a weaver and a photographer. Both involve color and texture, but photography is really all about the pursuit of light. Reveling in the discovery of how it changes the perception of texture, the color, and the contrast of lines. Kate uses a digital camera, mostly daylight, but occasionally a lightbulb, and then editing software (Lightroom) to adjust contrast, exposure, and occasionally color to emphasize the beautiful things we see.
