Kate Just was born in Hartford, Connecticut in 1974 and moved to Melbourne permanently in 1996. She is known for her diverse practice encompassing large-scale sculptural knitted work, mixed-media installation, collage and digital print. In earlier works, Just drew on myth and folklore linking women and nature to create elaborate, knitted figures and environments which metaphorically explored her own autobiographical experiences. In more recent work, Just mines archaeology, art history, and symbology to create installations of mysterious tools and objects which explore women’s ongoing link to the spaces of and around the body.
