> STATEMENT

Kristi Kent is an artist living and working in New York.  Her drawn and painted images of everyday objects and industrial structures take on a conversation between the urban landscape, technology and her own desire to connect with the environment around her.  Ranging from things such as power cords, rooftop ventilation apparatus, and sputnik-like flying and floating objects, Kent's fantastical landscapes present a haunting and strangely intimate world of archi-toon characters.
