Creative Conversations with --- Katie Moore - Season 2 Episode 2

0s · Creative Conversations with Paula McGurdy · 08 Oct 08:00

In this episode, I sit down Mayo based with Visual Artist, Katie Moore.

Katie creates incredibly delicate & evocative installations.

What Katie says of her work... '
I explore empathy and memorialisation by creating environments the viewer can experience. My work is inspired by my own life experiences living with long-term illness. My illness has forced me to spend long periods in hospital and home isolation, it is these experiences that most influence my work. I use various medium including textiles, drawing, video to create installations. My work is very conceptually driven. Each process and action within the process is very considered. The materials I use are relevant to each concept I am exploring at the time. Human conditions such as empathy, isolation, trauma, loss, memory are recurrent themes within my practice.'

We chat about so many things from, how she went to Art college as a mature student, whilst also living with long-term illness and also talk in depth about her installation 'Entropy' which is beautifully delicate and is such a powerful emotive piece of work.

I hope you enjoy it and you come away feeling inspired by this conversation with Katie. If so please do share, like & subscribe!
