@pratt magazine FEB-APR 2015
What’s your sign? I’ve never been one to put much stock in astrology. Practically speaking, I don’t find it all that useful. But in a dreamier kind of way, maybe, if nothing else, it offers an opportunity for reflection, and an opportunity to ask ourselves questions about our forecasts: Does this feel true for me? Do I want this to be true? Am I open to the possibility that this could be true? I couldn’t help but notice that 2015 is the Year of the Sheep (aka Ram or Goat). It is commonly known as the symbol of the arts (it also happens to be the same symbol under which I was born, but we’ll just call that a happy coincidence). It is expected to bring peace, tranquility, and inspiration. It is said that those with creative pursuits will benefit from the patronage of the stars throughout the year. In fact, it is also said that any undertaking that is tackled with passion and joy will be met with good favor. You know I like the sound of that! And while I don’t believe that anyone can really predict the future, I admit that this projection does give me a spark. Like maybe, if I allow myself to believe that it could be true, I can give myself permission to pursue it. And maybe if I allow myself to actively participate in this vision for my future, then the prophecy will become truly self-fulfilling. I’m willing to give it a go if you are! One way or another, I know that this is going to be a great year for creativity at Pratt. So let’s get after it! Cheers,
Steve Galatro Executive Director

@PM: When did you first
start working with metal? KL: I discovered metals
in high school. I had a friend who was taking a jewelry class and he got me interested. I’ve always been interested in fine art—ever since I can remember. I had a lunch/ free period and my friend asked me if I wanted to come see the jewelry studio. Very quickly I knew I loved the material. I remember really enjoying being in the studio, and after that, every day I had a lunch period I’d go to the studio instead. I ended up going to the Cleveland Institute of Art and majoring in it.
@PM: You make both

jewelry and sculpture, you study astronomy. How does outer space inform and influence your designs?
KL: I’m not formally trained
in astronomy but I’ve always been interested in it. I find it incredibly inspiring and I have two telescopes. Looking at space is very relaxing for me. Some people find it intimidating feeling like we’re so small, but I find it really comforting. Space is beautiful—you have a black backdrop with lights and perfect spheres that rotate around the sun. From an engineering standpoint and in thinking about kinetic sculpture, I find that incredible. You don’t see things that look that perfect on a daily basis. There is something happening there on a grander scale that allows these objects to exist, and it links art, science and spirituality together.

If something stays with you for that long there’s a lot to mine there. I came across the French astronomer Nicolas Louis de Lacaille, and he had named constellations very differently than the ones we are familiar with that are named after gods and animals. He named a number of constellations in the southern sky after his interest in technology and instrumentation. They have strange names like Fornax (The Furnace) or Circinus (The Compass). I identified them as tools that were similar to what I used in my studio. It was a piece of the puzzle that connected for me, and I wanted to explore it more. It was a moment in time where
things were percolating and then I could see them more clearly. This experience has been more prevalent in the last few years of my life—I recognize these moments more easily and they happen more often. This was a visual interpretation of that experience.

a kinetic sculpture class at Pratt called Crank it Up. What do you most look forward to in teaching students here? KL: I like the scale of the
space here—you can go a bit bigger with what you’re making. Pratt reminds me of the studio I worked in as an undergraduate student. It is a comfortable and familiar space. I’ve heard great things about Pratt and I have friends that teach or are students here. I like being involved with any place that’s promoting metalworking. @PM: Which current
projects are you enjoying most?
KL: This is the busy season
for making jewelry. I do trade or service work during the winter months. It’s exciting and I’m working on some new pieces that are my own designs. I won’t start thinking about a lot of new ideas until after the New Year. January through April is when I get the time to really dive in and start working on new projects.
