Kate Levant

She has degrees from Yale University[1] and the School of the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston.

She uses salvaged industrial materials, papers, aluminum foil and household items to create abstract assemblages.

[4] The concepts driving these sculptures have been described by Natalie Haddad at Hyperallergic as "systems that sustain life and society, and the consequences of their breakdown, remain at the heart of her practice."

[5] Of what drives the form of her work, the artist has said, “The material, the substances and subjects themselves, seem to be what has the whip in them…I don’t feel in charge of the dynamic.” Critics frequently mention Levant's 2009 exhibition "Blood Drive" at Zach Feuer Gallery—launched while still a graduate student at Yale University—as the launch of her career.

In the article, he describes her work "mourning" the loss of America's Manufacturing Industry.
