Maggie Groat is a visual artist who makes images and objects from found and salvaged materials. Her work considers the utility of images and the transformative, ritual potential of reuse while living in times of climate emergency. Her methodologies are informed by states of being in between, intuition, acts of care, responsiveness, strategies of collage, decolonization, and hopeful speculation. Many of Groat’s recent projects engage with domestic or public spaces through considering researched-based, deep time approaches to working site-specifically. She carries many of the interests woven throughout her practice into her roles as parent, arts educator, birthworker and environmental steward.
