Kris Grey (pronoun flexible: they/she/he) is a New York City based transgender artist who uses their body as raw material, often presenting themselves in states of extreme vulnerability as an invitation to experience transcendence or discover hidden queer histories. Kris’ cultural work includes curatorial projects, performance, writing, and studio production in ceramics. In addition to their individual practice, Grey collaborates with Maya Ciarrocchi under the moniker Gender/Power. Kris is currently a Visiting Artist and Assistant Teaching Professor at Penn State University where they incorporate Visual Thinking Strategies facilitated conversations as a tool to shift the pedagogy of visual art critique.
