Holten's work is often made from recycled materials, and involves maps, plants, and various ecological subjects, provoking a dialogue on issues ranging from biodiversity to global warming.〔 "As a society that excludes nature from everyday life, how can today's art engage with the natural landscape?" Katie Holten is looking for an answer to this question.
Drawing is central to Holten's work. She is fascinated by the process of transforming two-dimensional drawings to three-dimensional works. "In a sense, no matter what form they end up taking, all of my works can be considered drawings. I have a wide-open understanding of what drawing is. It’s lines created on a page, in space, on screen, on a wall, through walking, flying, talking, via graphite, ink, sand, stones, wind, sound, ether, time… Drawing is a way to chart what is there, what might be there, what could be there."〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.greeno.it/home/interview-with-katie-holten/ )〕 In works like "Uprooted", the very shadows cast on the walls are part of the work.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://sensingchange.chemheritage.org/sensing-change/art/uprooted )〕
In 2007 Holten was commissioned by The Bronx Museum of the Arts, Wave Hill and the NYC Department of Parks & Recreation to create "Tree Museum", a public artwork celebrating the 2009 centennial of the Grand Concourse, Bronx, NY.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.treemuseum.org )〕 "She has marked out 100 trees along the Concourse, which is about four and a half miles long. Each one will have a sign that gives a phone number and a code to listen to short recordings of people speaking about the Bronx, their lives and their work."
