Chaco Kato’s practice exists in a state of constant encounters: encounters with new spatial situations, encounters with new social contexts, and encounters with new materials and processes.

Parallel to this, recurring sites of inquiry revolve around social, psychological and environmental systems and structures. With a particular focus on the erosion of binary approaches to the world, challenging the artist / non-artist hierarchy and collapsing material hierarchies. Kato would like to keep challenging herself to create works that can address these issues by exploring the depth of the language of textile practice merging with the freedom of drawings’ practice.
