Campus Studio, University of Illinois at Urbana Champaign, 2019
Katie Netti is a graduate student in the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign's Sculpture department. She is an instructor for Ceramic Sculpture at the University and volunteers as a Taxidermist for the Urbana Park District. Her current practice questions the world between traditional taxidermy, contemporary art and ethics.
"My creative practice aims to distort perception enough to place the viewer one step away from the authentic, and one step towards believing in the “made.” My sculptures blur the line between art and specimen by creating transgenic objects that explore the interplay between culture, nature and ethics."
