Kate Forer (she/they/he) is an artist working in Madison, Wisconsin. Born in Carbondale, IL, Forer attended Southern Illinois University Carbondale and received a BA in Art and Art History. Currently pursuing an MFA at University of Wisconsin- Madison, Kate is a sculptor (for lack of a better term). She works primarily with fiber, creating surrealist and cartoonish costumes. Digital art, photography, analog technology, and storytelling are also important components to their practice. Forer is interested in conversations about humans and their role in an increasingly digital, commodified, observed, and isolated social landscape, frequently taking a humorous approach to this conversation. Out of the studio, Kate can be found hunting Bandcamp for new artists, reading 2000s era webcomics, and watching impressively long video essays about cable television.
