Biography:

Kat Clarke is a Wotjobaluk woman and a multi-talented creative with over 20 years' experience

in the arts industry. She has a background in curatorial work and writing and uses this alongside

her arts to develop work that bring awareness about her people and culture. Her medium of

choice is Acrylic, but she has expanded her craft in Clay, Artefacts, and Crafts. Kat has gained

her knowledge and her teachings from her father and many Elders who have collaborated with

her throughout the years. Much of her art has been commissioned by organisations throughout

Victoria, such as Australian Centre for the Moving Image (ACMI), Federation University, the

Immigration Museum, Melbourne University, Palliative Care Victoria, Barengi Gadjin Land

Council (BGLC), Grampians Health Services in the Wimmera and just recently Dalki Garringa

Native Nursery. Since becoming a mum, her passion is to pass on her knowledge to her son

and teach him the ways of culture the way she was taught.
