Katie Austin Taylor

Katie Austin Taylor is the artist behind Boring and arts educator based in the Sunshine Coast Hinterland. Her practice explores the tension between softness and structure through cardboard and paper pulp, salvaged material, and a process-led approach rooted in play and repetition.Drawing from her background in early childhood art education, her work embraces the instinctive mark-making and resourcefulness of children’s creative thinking, while pushing material far from its original form. Through her label boring*, she creates textural wall works and sculptural vessels that celebrate the overlooked, the domestic, and the quietly powerful.
