Kaitlin Santoro
CFEVA Visual Artist Fellow, 2026-28
Kaitlin Santoro is an interdisciplinary artist who works across photography, sculpture, glass, and printmaking to explore impermanence, loss, and memory. She is interested in who gets remembered, how we are remembered, how memory changes, and why certain things are forgotten, while also seeking to understand the brain's lucidity and memory triggers. She works with materials and processes that will slowly shift and transform over time, mimicking the act of remembering.
Santoro’s work has been exhibited internationally, including shows at the International Center of Photography, UrbanGlass, and the Print Center of New York. Her work has been featured in Lenscratch, New Glass Review, and the Glass Art Society Journal, among other publications. She has been awarded various residencies, including those at the Manhattan Graphics Center, DaVinci Art Alliance, Stove Works, Pilchuck Glass School, as well as an apprenticeship at the Fabric Workshop and Museum. She received her BFA from the University of Connecticut and her MFA from the Tyler School of Art and Architecture. In addition to her studio practice, she is an Assistant Professor in the Art & Design Department at Montclair State University.
