25.01.2022 The sun is shining in Melbourne today, bringing to mind outdoor installations of summers past. This 9m custom aluminium mural, made locally in Melbourne, is designed to be enjoyed with clear line of sight from numerous observation points and varied perspectives within the home, transterior living spaces, pool and garden. Thank you to my amazing clients @2tgraphicdesign for bringing their tenacity, enthusiasm and considerable skill to the project. A true collaboration.

24.01.2022 ANTIPODAL TIDE. 1200x1500mm On the other side of the planet, the moons gravitational effect is weakest, blocked by the mass of the Earth. In addition, the planet is slightly accelerating toward the moon on the opposite side, pulling the mass of the Earth away from the water on the far side. These effects combine to create an antipodal high tide on the side opposite the moon. Source: sciencing.com

17.01.2022 Friends! Join me this Saturday 22 August at 4pm AEST via Instagram Live, for our second session of PAINT-ALONG WITH KATIE. I have some good news for you.. you ARE the creative type.

There is a list of materials in the comments below.. but all you really need to participate is a tube of white acrylic paint, blue food colour or acrylic paint, some water and paper. Melbourne and Mitchell Shire: I have tagged two of my favourite art supplies stores offering contactless delivery and click and collect services: @artshedonline @melbourneartsupplies.

16.01.2022 I designed the @pureology X @ovariancanceroz gift pack to help raise awareness of ovarian cancer, and to support the incredible work of @ovariancanceroz supporting women living with ovarian cancer. You can purchase the pack and its heavenly @pureology self care hair products from @adorebeauty and Pureology Salons Australia wide. $7 from each pack goes directly toward improving outcomes for women living with ovarian cancer. Ovarian cancer kills three Australia women per day ...while the five year survival rate of 45% has moved only fractionally over 30 years. Over 1500 Australian women are diagnosed each year. There is no early detection test, so its important to be aware of the signs and symptoms (swipe through the carousel to learn more). Its time to put an end to Australias deadliest female cancer. Its time for ovary-action! Tell your friends and lady loved ones and help spread this important message x

05.01.2022 It is with great joy that I launch my exhibition CLOSE PHENOMENA, for Melbourne Design Week 2021. Exploring the principles of environmental psychology, I have designed a multi-sensory response to the local natural world. Comprising large scale, dye sublimation prints on aluminium, and a collection of ten new paintings, CLOSE PHENOMENA reflects on our changed and ‘distanced’ experience, to examine how our natural and built environments shape us as individuals, and how paying ...closer attention to the near natural world can support our wellbeing and encourage emotional connection to place. Access the online viewing rooms from March 28 - April 5 at katiemckinnon.com.au (link in bio). The exhibition viewing event on Thursday 1 April at @the_buttonfactory is close to capacity and will feature a live vocal performance by the magnificent Zoë Brunsdon. If you have not yet booked your ticket, there are just a handful left, so please do via the link in my profile. Pictured, a few highlights from the online viewing rooms. Enjoy the show together with the CLOSE PHENOMENA playlist in my bio and stories. With thanks, KMcK This event is part of Melbourne Design Week 2021, an initiative of the Victorian Government in collaboration with the NGV. #NGV @ngvmelbourne #MelbourneDesignWeek #closephenomena #katiemckinnonart
