Exhibitions

After being awarded the winner of public vote for the Textile Biennale at Museum Rijswijk in 2021 the prize was a solo museum show running from 27th November 2022 – March 12th 2023

During the Pandemic of 2020 I started a personal project entitled the ‘The Art of Shelf Isola-tin and Social Distance-tin’ where I looked to my kitchen cupboard for inspiration as everyone was in lockdown and people had been panic buying goods from the supermarket shelves for fear of running out of food.

To celebrate the 75th birthday of Panzer’s Deli Kate was commissioned to create a specially designed pop up bagel bar in the store where customers could build their own bespoke bagel. Alongside this Kate also designed a range of birthday cards and limited edition prints.

This installation was exhibited at the Gallery by the Harbour, Harbour City. Tsim Sha Tsui which saw the gallery transformed into a complete bakery and patisserie shop. Over a thousand incredibly detailed knitted and crocheted pastries were created especially for the exhibition and featured famous local Hong Kong treats such as egg tarts and pineapple buns with butter.

‘Kate’s Bakes’ is a touring exhibition which was created in 2019 for the ‘HandMade Festival’ Barcelona and comprises a beautifully detailed knitted and crocheted bakery and patisserie counter. The installation was designed to tour the world and the contents change to suit the local pastries, breads and cakes of each country it is exhibited in. More countries to follow in the not too distant future.

In 2015 Kate was invited to exhibit at The Knitting and Stitching Show at Alexander Palace and later at The Knitting and Stitching Show RDS Dublin. An entire fish counter was created out of knit and crochet with a few thousand sequins. This is Kate’s largest installation to date and was shortlisted for the 2016.
