Featured Artist: Katie Dillon Low

In Preparation for Leaving, 7ft x 12ft x 9ft, mixed media construction and assemblage

Katie Dillon Low is a Philadelphia artist who creates sculpture, installation, and small objects.

"I am from Nashville originally and got my BFA from Belmont University, which I don't expect anyone to know of, but there you are... and I moved to Philadelphia about 4 years ago to do my MFA at PAFA. I went in a painter, I came out a sculptor! So now I am this emerging artist working predominately in sculpture. My work is influenced by my own life events and surroundings. I am especially interested in the patina of old and neglected objects and architecture of which Philadelphia is a haven."
