About the artist: Kathleen Studebaker is the winner of this years’ Dina Wind Art Foundation award at the Bridgette Mayer Gallery Benefit Exhibition, a fabricator and all-around tinkerer, and has developed her broad knowledge-base of material processes through work in many different shops (from all-glass furniture and elaborate corporate trophies, to traditional woodworking and academia).She has a great love of detailed fabrication and problem-solving, and makes every element of each of her works by hand (no CNC machines, lasers, etc). Her work often references the far-flung future, or perhaps alternate realities, and is inspired by astronomy, narrative fantasy, and the intersection of digital technology with mechanical function.
