Katie Kehoe works predominantly in socially engaged performance, site specific installation, and creates survival architecture, objects and wearables that dually function as props in her performances or elements in her installations. Much of her work is designed to engage the public to reflect on specific sites in relation to climate change, sustainability, and excessive waste production.

Kehoe’s work has been presented across the US and Canada and reviewed by critics such as Becky Hunter in Art Papers, Eames Armstrong in Performa Magazine, and Mark Jenkins in The Washington Post. Presentation highlights include: The Hirshhorn Museum (Washington, DC), The Contemporary Museum (Baltimore, MD), Center for Maine Contemporary Art (Rockland, ME), Arlington Arts Center’s Inaugural Regional Biennial (Arlington, VA), SummerWorks Festival – LiveArt Series (Toronto, ON) and solo shows at VisArts (Rockville, MD) and Type Books Gallery (Toronto, CAN). Kehoe is a member of the Atlantika Collective and Cultivate Projects, and values cross-disciplinary collaboration.

Raised in Cape Breton, CAN, Kehoe currently lives in Tallahassee, FL, where she is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Art at Florida State University. Kehoe completed her MFA from the Mount Royal School of Art at the Maryland Institute College of Art (Baltimore, MD).
