In addition to her artwork, Kina has been a key collaborator and associate designer to artist Anne Patterson since 2011. In her work with Anne, she's been able to be a part of the joyful experience Anne's installations provide, especially for children and families. 

Kina considers her work with Anne Patterson to be an integral part of her growth as an artist. From the brainstorming, drafting, and research, to the final fabrication and installation of the pieces, working with Anne remains a gratifying collaborative experience.
