Kate Newby is a New Zealand-born artist whose practice explores the poetics of place through sculpture, installation, and site-sensitive gestures. Working with everyday materials—ceramic, textile, glass, rope—she embeds her works within landscapes, architecture, and public space, allowing them to accumulate weather, dirt, and time. Newby’s interventions often appear accidental or barely present, yet they fundamentally alter how a site is seen and sensed. She holds a DocFA from the University of Auckland and has exhibited extensively across Europe, the Americas, and Asia, including solo exhibitions at Kunsthalle Wien, Adam Art Gallery, and the Museum of Contemporary Art Australia. Her work is represented by galleries in Toronto, Lisbon, Paris, San Sebastián, and Sydney.
