KATE KUAIMOKU 


   I’m a visual artist working somewhere between infrastructure, myth, and lived experience. My projects move through performance, installation, and site-based gestures, often circling themes of impact, survival, and transformation. I’m interested in thresholds and the figures that emerge there. Landscapes, archetypes, and engineered systems tend to slip into the work. Oscillating between Northern California and Baja Sur.
