  • Artist: Chris Watts (American, b. 1984)

American multi-media artist and painter. Currently experiments how layers of silk, textiles, and screened veneers of acrylic overlap and confuse distinctions between surface and transparency, what is real and what is represented. Invites viewers to self-explore while also interrogate representation and identity around black narratives.
