Katharina Nuss is a textile artist, gardener and printmaker, and combines all those passions in her work. She makes textile items that are both beautiful and practical, all dyed with plants she grows and forages herself. Whenever possible she uses reclaimed and repurposed materials, and she loves that her art materials are plants which can be composted once a project is complete! Katharina enjoys the back and forth of a creative process in which natural materials feature prominently and inevitably bring an element of unpredictability and surprise to the work. This makes each piece truly unique and imbues it with the characteristics of each plant and the place and season it was harvested.
Katharina also has a B.F.A. Honours from the University of Manitoba.
