About the Artist
The Oregon Ballet Theatre’s Nightlife cat was created by KSRA to celebrate the performing arts that make Portland’s nightlife so vibrant. Through KSRA’s art, she aims to capture the moment of a shifting urban landscape and evoke notalgia for the landmarks that define our cities, but never disappear from our stories. Her mural work can be found worldwide from Indonesia to mexico, and across the U.S. Having found a home in Portland’s stop motion fabrication industry, she continues her artistic career in a smaller form.
