Katie Fee is a potter, studio manager, and material enthusiast in Chicago, Illinois, where she lives with her husband.
Fee earned her B.A. in Studio Art and Geology from the College of William & Mary and her MFA from the New York State College of Ceramics. Fee has zig-zagged across the country to participate in art communities, wood kilns, and projects- including time at U.Mass, Dartmouth, Mudflat Art Center, The Morean Center for Clay, Peters Valley School of Craft, Lillstreet Art Center, and TGS, LLC.
Fee grew up on her grandparent’s farm, and is inspired by memories of working, cooking, and exploring the landscape of wetland South Carolina. She also draws inspiration from her undergraduate Geology Studies and lived experience in landscape. She loves that ceramics marries seemingly separate worlds: simultaneously grounding us in the action of the earth, enhancing the architecture of our daily lives, and connecting us to our ancestors.
