Moore, SC
Katie Karban is an artist based in Spartanburg, SC. She is a 2020 Bachelor of Fine Arts graduate of Winthrop University with dual concentrations in Painting and Printmaking. She graduated with Honors College distinction in May 2020.
She is interested in fiber arts, too, especially the history of textiles, patterns, and fabric-based items dealing with how individuals may relate to these items. The exploration of fabrics and patterns are used in her work to further how a person may be represented in addition to rendered figure. In 2018, she studied abroad for six months full time at the Dunedin School of Art, Otago Polytechnic in Dunedin, New Zealand. She received funding to attend a workshop at the Arrowmont School of Craft in 2019.
​When Katie is not being hypnotized by patterns or obsessing over her mountain of scrap fabrics, she spends her time being a chair for her cat and taking care of at least 18 plants.
