Art + Artists

Inspired by texture, form, and a love of nature, Katherine Allen creates objects of adornment and natural beauty. Using combinations of organic and processed materials, Allen manipulates her materials to simulate organic objects and surface textures. During her residency, Allen will explore the use of new materials and processes to create a cohesive body of work. Allen received a BS in Art Education from Miami University and is a current Charlotte-Mecklenburg School System Art Teacher at William Amos Hough High School. Her jewelry has been on display at Beet Gallery and Ecolicious, in Charlotte, North Carolina.
