Embracing the random encounters of the everyday, from found images, leftover materials and scraps. Especially in this time of isolation, creating with materials I have at home has been essential. This randomness and chance happening allows for unexpected ways for communication and connections. As I layer these pieces I am responding to the tactile qualities of the materials and how they interact and are in conversation with one another. I am curious about intersections, the combining of media, and the in-between spaces that tell stories and create a common thread. The history of these materials evolve as they are revealed in the compositions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>My role as a mother inspires my artwork, in content and in the space I make for creating. Through my art I strive to channel a message of truth and playfulness. As a mother, educator and artist I weave a thread through these identities to bring hope and connection to the world, even for just a fleeting moment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>BIO<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Kate Chassner creates paper and textile collages in the mountains of North Carolina in a range of themes and sizes. Currently an MFA student at Western Carolina University she is exploring new mediums and expanding her collage templates. Work she has shown include a large mixed media commission for the hospital to small collages on paint samples. Working along side her young children her subject matter is often playful and relates to motherhood.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>ARTIST CONTACT<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>[<a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"mailto:kate.chassner@gmail.com\" target=\"_blank\">click to email<\/a>]<br><a href=\"http:\/\/www.katechassnerart.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">www.katechassnerart.com<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>IMAGES<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"700\" height=\"500\" src=\"http:\/\/kolajmagazine.com\/artistdirectory\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/kate-chassner-this_changes_everything.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-9074\" srcset=\"http:\/\/kolajmagazine.com\/artistdirectory\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/kate-chassner-this_changes_everything.jpg 700w, http:\/\/kolajmagazine.com\/artistdirectory\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/kate-chassner-this_changes_everything-300x214.jpg 300w, http:\/\/kolajmagazine.com\/artistdirectory\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/kate-chassner-this_changes_everything-210x150.jpg 210w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 700px) 100vw, 700px\" \/><figcaption><em>This Changes Everything<\/em><br>6&#8243;x8&#8243;;
