Kristen’s work engages a variety of strategies: video, installation, comedic performances, and teaching in an ongoing investigation into what makes something believable.
As a part of her studio research, she has been an artist in residence at the Philadelphia Museum of Art, Vermont Studio Center, Sculpture Space, Skowhegan School of Painting and Sculpture, MacDowell, and the Sharpe-Walentas Studio Program (2024-2025).
Kristen gained her first museum show at the Delaware Contemporary, in 2017, with her collaborative project, Sister Spaceship. She has also held solo exhibitions at PRACTICE Gallery in Philadelphia, PA; Ortega y Gasset Projects in Brooklyn, NY; and this fall (2024) at Turley Gallery in Hudson, NY.
Kristen Mills is an interdisciplinary visual artist who splits her time between the Hudson Valley and Brooklyn, NY.
