About
Katherine Thomas is a conceptual artist driven by interpretations and representations of place. Much of her work is rooted in a transient childhood, where ideas of place, home, and road needed definition, as they often became intertwined. Thomas’ work dissects her personal experiences and American historical relationships to location and symbols. She is currently based in Salt Lake City, Utah. She achieved her BFA from Ball State University in 2018.
