Renowned Ft. Worth Artist Katie Murray Wows NeoCon Goers
CHICAGO, June 19, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Katie Murray may have been commissioned by some of the most recognizable names in the world—Facebook, Macy's, Meow Wolf—but she's perhaps better known locally. She's adorned many of the most beloved Fort Worth buildings with vibrant, colorful murals, often with cultural messages of unity and diversity. And her portfolio is full of intimate portraits, collages, and mixed-media pieces. In short, our girl is in demand.
凱蒂·默裏或許曾受世界上一些最知名的品牌Facebook、梅西百貨和Meow Wolf委託，但她更爲當地人所熟知。她爲許多最受喜愛的沃斯堡建築物裝扮了鮮豔且多彩的壁畫，其中常常包含文化上的團結和多樣性的信息。她的作品集中還包括了許多親密的肖像畫、拼貼畫和雜介材料作品。簡而言之，我們的女孩備受歡迎。
While her recent installation in the Clarus showroom for NeoCon 2024 had no societal overtones, it was no less inspirational. The large-scale mixed-media piece captured glossy ocean waves frozen in time crashing and lapping across the wall-sized canvas. The interplay of glass and the use of unexpected materials added depth and dimension, percolating with light and leading the viewer across the length of the piece. In the spirit of the showroom theme, "Perspective, Perception," the word "perception" was also cleverly tucked away behind the waves, waiting to surprise viewers. One guest stood close and added up the letters individually until they realized the word, while another remained farther back and smiled, observing the piece as a whole.
儘管她最近在Clarus展廳爲NeoCon2024進行的裝置作品中沒有涉及社會問題，但這並不影響它令人歎爲觀止。這幅大型雜介作品捕捉到了閃耀的海浪凍結在時間裏，激盪和湧動在牆面大小的畫布上。玻璃的相互作用和使用意料之外的材料增加了深度和維度，充滿着光線，引領着觀衆穿越整個作品。在展廳主題“視角、感知”中，單詞“感知”巧妙地藏在了海浪後面，等待着觀衆的驚喜。一位客人站得很近，逐個計算字母，直到意識到這個單詞，而另一個客人則站得更遠，微笑着看着整個作品。"視覺上，它需要在遠處和近處都有意義，特別是從兩個角度提供敬畏之感，"凱蒂說。
"Visually, it needed to make sense both from a distance and up close specifically to provide a sense of awe from both perspectives," said Katie.
"從視覺上來說，它需要從遠處和近處都有意義，從而使兩個視角都有敬畏之感，" 凱蒂說。
Attendees chatted with the artist, asking questions about the construction. According to Katie's Instagram, it was built with "over 13,000 screws, 5,000 Legos, 4 sheets of PET, 3 sharp knives, [and] hundreds of hours of assistance."
參觀者與藝術家交談，詢問有關建造的問題。根據凱蒂的Instagram上所說，它是用"超過13,000顆螺釘，5,000塊樂高積木，4張PET片，3把鋒利的刀，以及數百小時的幫助"建造的。
"I think people were surprised by all the unique materials used," Katie added. "[They] wanted to know how long it took to complete, and I honestly think it could have been worked on for another 100 hours."
"我認爲人們對使用的所有獨特材料感到驚訝，" 凱蒂補充道。" [他們] 想知道它花費了多長時間完成，我真的認爲它可能還能再工作100個小時。"
A native Texan, Katie earned a graphic design degree from the University of Arlington and a master's at Texas Women's University. She serves as the Chief Creative Officer for M2G Ventures and is also a co-founder and chief advisor for Art Room. Contact Katie via her website and socials.
