Katherine Clarke Langlands (she/her) is a contemporary, interdisciplinary American artist whose bold and dynamic work has captivated the attention of art enthusiasts and patrons around the globe. Langlands’ signature aesthetic has cemented her as a singular voice in the art community among high-end gallerists, collectors, and prestigious international art fair organizers alike. Her pieces have also been showcased in several urban mural, public sculpture, and civic projects across the United States, as well as in private collections.   

KCL was raised by pioneering entrepreneurs and grew up immersed in a theology of risk-taking and “going big,” which is often reflected in the vibrant, provocative art she creates today. Her most recent works explore the complexities of the human experience in paintings, sculpture, and assemblage and reflect an urge to redefine, re-assign, deconstruct, destruct and, ultimately, transform.  

KCL studied studio art and sociology at the University of Vermont and is currently a graduate student at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago. She is also a studio resident at the Vermont Studio Center.  

She splits her time between the craggy coastline of Block Island, Rhode Island and the verdant hills of Stowe, Vermont where she can often be found ripping down the mountain on her snowboard. She and her partner are launching a surf and skateboard shop in Block Island in the summer of 2023.
