about the artist
byKatie Gong
Forest Knolls, CA
Inspired by gourd people who tie growing gourds into knots on the vine, Katie began steaming and bending her own wood creations in 2015. Creating an innovative steaming apparatus as well as other mechanical methods that enabled her to bend wood poles into unique shapes and design, Katie began doing less and less custom design builds and furniture commissions, and began making more and more sculptures, ultimately developing into her art practice as a wood sculptress as you see it today.
