Kortney Paloalto

Kortney Paloalto is an artist from Seattle, Washington. While she began her practice working primarily in acrylics, her recent work has centered on immersive art installations, a focus that grew out of her experience as a two-time Blumenthal Fellow with CIAF. She was a featured artist in Charlotte SHOUT! 2024 and part of CIAF’s 100 Tiny Things project in 2023. A big part of her pieces have to do with celebrating her heritage and showing the world who she is through her art - this includes a lot of color and playful concepts because that’s who she is and how she sees the world.
