Material-led creative rituals for navigating life’s difficult transitions
Shifting States is a creative practice that supports people through change, loss, and uncertainty using ritual, making, and meaning-focused objects.
Grounded in material research and lived experience, the work offers practical ways to steady yourself when life feels unstable.
My name is Katie Taylor, and I am the founder of Shifting States. My work is rooted in a deep conviction that creative practice can offer meaningful support during periods of profound difficulty, a belief shaped by lived experience as well as professional practice.
