Katie Theodorus is a self-taught emerging artist. A chance encounter in 2016 led to collaborations with fellow artists and the opportunity to participate in her first group show the following year. She finds inspiration in sources as varied as internet culture, nature, history, dreams and spirituality, as well as her imagined life as an archivist. Many of her works act as medicine, reconciling her experiences as neurodiverse, large-bodied, mentally ill and chronically ill. 

Her love of learning leads her to constantly experiment with new media and forms of expression, including paint, watercolour, printmaking, crochet, embroidery, found objects, and film. In the last few years, her practice has focussed on examining consumerism, the nature of work, and the decreasing relevance of facts in a post-truth world.
