BIOGRAPHY
Katrien worked as an Interior Architect for over two decades, collaborating with exceptional craftspeople but at the same time growing increasingly concerned about the diminishing value of expert design and craft in contemporary society. She now devotes her time to woodworking, exhibiting her work internationally at FOG San Francisco, COLLECT, Masterpiece, and PAD London.
Katrien's woodworking is defined by her poetic Ukiyo series, named after the Japanese term meaning ‘living in the moment,’ which embodies both her artistic process and personal philosophy. She works outdoors year-round, allowing the weather to influence and shape her work. Using raw wood, she applies fire in an uncontrolled environment to create organic, undulating forms that expose the beauty and destructiveness of nature. Katrien embraces failure and uncertainty as integral to her process, believing that they offer valuable lessons in both art and life. -
