Working in museums, galleries, public spaces, and the space of existing and imagined architecture, Katarina Burin often reconsiders narratives both historical and personal. Using archival material and invented forms, true stories, and imperfect memories, Burin blends fact and fiction - sometimes in equal measure - to produce installations, images and objects that are at times functional, at times fantastical, occasionally commemorative, and often mysterious, playing with levels of subtlety and immersiveness.

Katarina Burin received her BFA from the University of Georgia and an MFA from Yale University. She is currently associate senior lecturer in Harvard University’s department of Art, Film & Visual Studies.
