Katie McGown (b. 1981) is a Canadian artist who completed her BFA at the Ontario College of Art and Design and then ran away to Scotland to do her MFA at the Glasgow School of Art. Her works use conventional textile techniques such as embroidery, smocking, lacemaking and beading in combination with unconventional materials or contexts to force new associations and narratives.
Katie's work is currently examining the connection between the domestic production of textiles and her journeys through the city.
