Kate Steenhauer (UK) is a visual artist whose practice explores the dynamic and interactive capacity of drawing in dialogue with other art forms, technology and their relationship with its audience. This moves visual art as a traditionally static experience into a dynamic interactive art form that is temporal, transient and transformational. Multidisciplinary collaborations include dance, opera, music, sound, verbatim, and artificial intelligence. These productions can be viewed through the mediums of theatre, film, (live) audio-visual installation and artwork. She also has a large portfolio capturing contemporary life at some of Scotland’s most iconic industries using printmaking and oil painting techniques.
