Kathleen Griffin
Arts/Industry: Foundry, 2004
For Kathleen Griffin, art is a life raft; it rescues her from the crippling minutia and boredom that is our everyday world and allows her to say something real. She makes art to express the uncontrollable and wild, the irrational and beautiful. By resisting the forces that we build to tame and control ourselves, we release our delicate madness.
Griffin was an artist-in-residence at the John Michael Kohler Arts Center’s Arts/Industry at Kohler Co. (WI).
