Katya Labowe-Stoll is a multidisciplinary artist specializing in painting and drawing. Born in 1999 in Connecticut, she earned her Bachelor of Fine Arts from the Rhode Island School of Design in 2021. As of 2025, she resides in Los Angeles, California.
Her work explores how objects and ideas become mythologized. She considers how humans create meaning from the limitations and discomfort of their understanding of the world. Organic lines and transparent washes create a world of figures and objects teetering between real and unreal, new and old. The artist articulates scenes of figures in an atmospheric post-flood world of defused colors, apple cores, fish and clovers. Mythologies bring order and control, the fine lines and blurry edges that dictate how we see ourselves and our place in the world. The figures in the work create their own mythologies, confront their own psychosis and bare their own burdens of deciding what's True.
