Born and raised in Southern California, Katherine Muniz is a mixed-media artist whose work spans wire sculpture, painting, and kinetic forms. Through the use of steel wire, Muniz creates sculptural figures that cast their own shadows, inviting viewers to experience both form and movement as integral elements of the work.

 

Combining industrial ingenuity with artistic intuition, Muniz shapes and molds ideas into contemporary looped wire figures that explore visual perception, movement, and interactivity. Her wire sculptures are kinetic in nature, possessing a free-flowing, dancing quality that allows the viewer to enter the space of the sculpture itself. These works challenge traditional boundaries of sculpture by engaging light, shadow, and motion as active collaborators.

 

Muniz’s artistic expressions are interpretations of life itself. Her work seeks to evoke emotion while reflecting the joy, sorrow, and ecstasy shared through the human experience. A closer look reveals a rare and personal synthesis of metal, fabric, paint, passion, dance, style, empowerment, and energy—woven together into a visual language that embodies LIFE.
