Kate Maggart- Visual Artist

I am a Detroit-based visual artist working primarily in oil paint, with a practice rooted in surrealism and expressionism. My work explores topical and emotionally charged subjects—often reflecting on systems of power, identity, and disillusionment. I work across both raw canvas and wood panel, and frequently incorporate acrylics, water-based media, and ink into my process, though oil remains my primary medium. I create out of my studio in Detroit’s North Corktown neighborhood, where I continue to develop work that interrogates the world around me—sometimes haunting, sometimes visceral, always deeply personal.
