KATE BINGAMAN-BURT*

Susan

I make piles of work about the things that we BUY (and want) and the emotions attached to our STUFF. I also happily think and draw for good people and companies. I have been making work about consumption since 2002, teaching since 2004 and drawing until my hand cramps since 2006 (ouch).

Along with being an educator and illustrator, I organize events, installations, workshops and I probably talk a bit too much.

My design clients include Chipotle, Uniqlo, Hallmark, IDEO, VH1, Girl Scouts of America, Madewell and the Gap as well as locally loved institutions like the Museum of Contemporary Craft, Reading Frenzy and Know Your City. I am also on the board of directors for Design Week Portland and the Independent Pubishing Resource Center.

For me, teaching and making go hand in hand. Without one, the other wouldn’t exist.
