Katie Torn is a digital media artist and Instructor currently living in New York City. Her work employs computer programs used for Hollywood films and commercials to create experimental video works and digital prints that reflect observations on American consumerism, culture, and its impact on the environment and human body. Inspired by Cubism and Futurism, movements that strived to find new ways to express what life was like in an industrial age, Katie uses new technologies to express what life is like in the digital age where interacting in a virtual space is an everyday activity.

Katie studied studio art at The School of the Art Institute of Chicago, graduating with an MFA in 2012. She is currently a Fellow at Eyebeam Art and Technology Center. She has taught at CUNY Staten Island and is an Instructor at The School of the Art Institute of Chicago.
