Kate Dodd received her BFA from Pratt Institute in 1983 and her MFA from Columbia University in 1990. Originally from the Bay Area, she now lives in New Jersey while maintaining strong creative ties on both coasts. Dodd creates temporary and permanent site-specific installations that explore transformation, materiality, and the hidden patterns embedded in human habits.

Her work has been exhibited nationally in museums, galleries, and colleges. She received an Individual Artist Fellowship from the New Jersey State Council on the Arts in 2020 and has completed numerous artist residencies, including MacDowell and multiple school-based residencies throughout the tri-state area.

Dodd has been commissioned to create installations for five NJ Transit stations, as well as projects for Summit Public Arts, the Redwood City Public Library Children’s Room, and Rowan University. She is currently developing new commissions for The College of New Jersey and a private residential complex in Jersey City. In 2026, she will present a solo site-specific installation at the Montclair Art Museum.
