Katy is an interdisciplinary researcher thinking with the environmental humanities, Black and Indigenous studies, anti-colonial, feminist, and queer methodologies, and poetry/poetics. Katy’s research-led, often collaborative poetic practice seeks to develop experimental methods for sensing material and socio-ecological infrastructures and uneven geographies, focusing on questions of energy production and social reproduction, land dispossession and property, and dynamics of distance, remote/situatedness, and intimacy.

Katy will be exhibiting in the group show ‘River is/as’ within ‘Coneffluents‘, curated by 16 Collective in collaboration with FieldARTS, as part of Glasgow International Festival 2026.
