About

As a place-based artist I revel in the challenge and thrill of finding my subject matter in my current environment. I am deeply interested in the complexities of “place”, often spending hours on highways and backroads, seeking out and researching the history of towns, abandoned structures, and roadside architecture in an effort to understand their relationship with the surrounding landscape and their significance in both the past and present. I relish the process of searching and collecting, and the tactile nature of my work and art-making process. I work most often within the mediums of printmaking and photography, but have been known to make a sculpture or two.

Questions? Comments? Abandoned house locations?

I'd love to hear from you! katelynbladel@gmail.com
