BA (Hons) Interactive Arts
Katie Rhodes
My work revolves around uplifting people. I create work with the aim to make people smile. My art made in the hope of being spotted, found and passed on to share a little bit of happiness with somebody else. I work in a Pop Up style, my pieces can be seen on the streets and other public places and will then disappear.
I take inspiration from typography on the streets and from the messages that people have sent in to my blog and recycle them for more people to see.
I carry on the theme of recycling by upcycling old items and using places that I consider unloved and forgotten in my work. By exploring charity shops and car boot sales I have a collection of frames and jars that I use in my work and find new uses for.
