Bio and Artist Statement
Bio / Artist Statement
Kelly Newcomer’s work draws inspiration from relationships of caring between humans, earth systems, machines, and the electromagnetic spectrum. Her colorful, painterly works on paper and her ceramic figures are inspired by the non-dystopian potential of our shared future on earth. Her work is influenced by theorist Donna Haraway, “Technology is not neutral. We're inside of what we make, and it's inside of us. We're living in a world of connections — and it matters which ones get made and unmade.” (The Cyborg Manifesto, 1984). Based in Minneapolis, Kelly Newcomer has exhibited widely and also licenses her work as a commercial illustrator. Her work has been shown in galleries and museums including Minneapolis, Berlin, Brooklyn, Seattle and more. She received the Roswell Artist in Residence award. As a caregiver, she has training in helping people who are autistic and who have dementia. B.A. University of Minnesota Cultural Studies.
