    Kelly Schiesswohl

    Profile

    kelly (kelly4me) is a Queens-based multimedia artist who bridges the gap between the distinctly digital and tactile to build worlds that explore the intersections of vulnerability, digital culture, identity, and design. Her work peers into the inner worlds of her viewers via the wide, glassy eyes of her characters - a quality that she shares with her creations. Her personal stories manifest through digital animation, paper animation, illustration, sculpture, and interactive installation.
