Artist Bio

Kathryn Fullerton lives and works by the Salish Sea on the ancestral lands of the shíshálh people, Sunshine Coast, Canada.

In 2009 she received her MA in Environmental Education and Communication and was a Governor General’s Gold Award nominee based on her arts based thesis. Her creativity flourished when she lived in Indonesia from 2017-2019 and started taking workshops at Gaya Ceramic Arts Centre. Clay became the medium that awakened memories from childhood and it is from this ground/earth where her multimedia art practice emerges alongside training in Embodied Imagination™, which is a creative and therapeutic way of working with dreams. 

Kathryn has exhibited locally at the Sunshine Coast Art Crawl for three consecutive years (2021-2023), at several member shows and in 2022 she had her first ‘tiny gallery’ solo exhibit at the Gibsons Art Gallery. In 2023, Kathryn received a grant from the Canada Council for the Arts for a research project in Sasama, Japan. One of her photographs was featured in Canada’s photoED magazine, digital extra ed., 2024.
