BIOGRAPHY
Katie Strano is a fiber artist who weaves both artistic pieces and fabric for the body and home. She experiments with woven structures to create texture and depth, expressing simple, quiet moments of reflection. Additionally, she is a weaving educator and a pattern designer.

VISION
Katie Strano’s vision for her pieces is to create works rooted in the historical structures of weaving, drawing inspiration from traditional coverlets and bold geometric designs while incorporating a sense of modernity. She seeks to blend the past with the future, evoking the natural textures and patterns of soft grasses, shorelines, and the water found near the sea.
