About Katherine
Katherine Gemperline is an artist and curator. She is currently a third year Curatorial Studies MFA graduate student at the University of Kentucky, graduating December 2024. She earned her Bachelor’s in Studio Art concentrating in Painting and Drawing from Xavier University in Cincinnati, Ohio. She researches how the personal, social, and political intersect and affect people in their everyday lives. She is more specifically interested in how empathy, narratives, myth-making, and storytelling all interact to allow for artists and viewers outlets for their worries— how they use art to understand, deal with, or learn to tolerate their own struggles.
