CHRISTINA KENT
Christina Kent (b. 1993, The Woodlands, Texas) is a figurative painter working primarily in oils. A former PhD economist, Kent's transition to painting was catalyzed by a realization that the rational economic lens was insufficient to capture the profound complexity inherent in human experience.Through her paintings she reflects on the subtle nuances hidden in mundane moments of everyday life. Kent has exhibited at Studio, Gallery, San Francisco, CA; Arc Gallery, San Francisco, CA; Inclusions Gallery, San Francisco, CA; and Pence Gallery, Davis, CA; among others. In 2023, Kent was awarded the Emerging Artist Award from Pence Gallery, where she will have her first solo show in 2024, and her work was selected for honorable mention in the Sheridan Prize for Art. Kent currently lives and works in San Francisco, California.
