ABOUT KATE BINGAMAN-BURT


Kate Bingaman-Burt makes piles of work about the things that we BUY (and want) and the emotions attached to our STUFF. She also happily thinks and draws for good people and companies. She has been making work about consumption since 2002, teaching since 2004, and drawing until her hand cramps since 2006 (ouch). She is also an Associate Professor of Graphic Design at Portland State University.

Illustration is at the core of what she does, but her projects take on many forms including publications, prints, textiles, patterns, installations, murals, and ongoing photo documentation and crowd-sourced illustration projects.

Along with being an educator and illustrator, she organizes events, installations, and workshops. For her, teaching and making go hand in hand: Without one, the other wouldn’t exist.
