About The Artist
Kelly Redfearn Kinder is a Yurok artist whose work is sourced from personal navigation of the physical and cultural boundaries of natural landscapes, documented through photographs and drawings. Her artwork makes visible the hidden landscape of governance, and brings into question the definitions of stewardship, conservation, and preservation, and the authorities that determine those boundaries.
​
Kelly is currently based in the Bay Area.
