Katy Stone is best known for her large-scale installations and wall sculptures. Working primarily in aluminum, Dura-Lar and plexiglass, her artworks are a proposition to reconsider landscape painting as an environmental, immersive dynamic. Suspended, or set in relief, the artist’s drawn, cutout, painted, and stitched-together elements possess a vibrancy, a spirited energy and effect. Echoing fleeting clouds, falling leaves, moving water, and scattered light, they spill, climb and spread across the wall. This mimesis of nature locates the work in an earthly sphere but in a palpably conjured world created via the distinctive visual language she has developed over the decades. Conveying a movement from one state to another, from one moment to another, from one material to another, her compositions become universal metaphors for phenomena in nature through which we can glimpse the sublime.
She received her BFA from Iowa State University and her MFA from the University of Washington and lives and works in Seattle.
