New York-based neon artist, Kate Hush, came up as a graphic designer - creating animated GIFs and intricate neon layouts online. Eventually transitioning over to bending actual glass, Kate developed hands-on experience splicing, attaching electrodes, and processing her very own neon tubes. While working full-time at Brooklyn Glass, Kate began incorporating her love for film, femme fatale-type characters, and literature. She admits that making neon isn’t always easy, but tells us why it’s super important just the same — you never know where you'll see her work next!

Neon-bending has traditionally been a boys' club, but Kate Hush is changing that. The Brooklyn-based artist charms light into striking sculptures of women who aren't afraid to have their way with men-her own way of subverting neon's seedy, motel-sign past for a female-led vision of neon art today.
