Welcome to the Bunker Questionnaire, a series in which we ask Bunker Projects residents and exhibiting artists a few questions based on Marcel Proust’s famous Proust Questionnaire, a survey that purported to reveal a person’s true nature. We hope their answers and the accompanying photos allow you to get to know them and their work a little bit more.
Katie Bullock received her MFA from the Glass Department at the Rhode Island School of Design, and her BFA from the Painting and Drawing Department at Ohio State University. She catalogs and works with observed “everyday” moments and phenomena, driven by the complexity of truth that taking note can reveal. Recent solo exhibitions include As Seen From the Surface, Mattress Factory (March 2023), and Arguments Against the Existence of a Void, Albion College (December 2022). She currently lives and works in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.
Who are your favorite artists/the ones who’ve influenced you most?
“The artists influencing me the most at the moment are the ones I’m lucky enough to call my pals. Making things in the company of such wonderful folks really is something else, and I’m very grateful.”
Where do you go or what do you do when you need inspiration to recharge?
“I drive aimlessly for long periods of time!”
What’s the next goal or milestone you are working toward in your practice?
“I’m working toward integrating my glasswork and my drawing practice.”
