Creative Callbacks: Katy Kane

Now in its third year, the Creative Exchange Fund, administered by The Medium in downtown Springdale, supports local artists by providing financial support and a space to take creative risks.Katy Kane's studio space at The Medium is full of her art — finished pieces and works in progress. She's an artist, designer and practitioner of therapeutic arts. Her work can include collage and take aim at patriarchy, or be vibrant images of tigers or cheetahs. She creates murals for homes and businesses and pet portraits, too.Katy's current project, "Art with a Cause," combines painting, collage, origami and original interviews. Here, in her own words, more about her and her art — including the attraction of assembling collage.
