Kimberly Chiaris: Shadowed Glimpses
Kimberly Chiaris received her BFA in Photography from the Kansas City Art Institute. Her interest lies mainly in personal storytelling through handmade processes. She blends historical imagery with contemporary imagery to create a visual conversation that transcends time and speaks into the future. Her practices often involve digital composites combined with analog and alternative processes that include elements of mixed media. Her focus is mainly on themes about origin and identity and how trace memory, emotions, time, and culture shape and shift our understanding of history. She has recently exhibited in FotoFest, Southeast Museum of Photography at Daytona Beach College, Griffin Museum of Photography, SE Center for Photography, PhotoPlace Gallery, L.A. Photo Curator, Art Intersection, The Hand Magazine, and Candela Books and Gallery.
