Artist Directory

Kris Knight is Canadian painter whose work examines performance in relation to the construction, portrayal and boundaries of sexual and asexual identities. Since graduating from the Ontario College of Art and Design in 2003, Knight’s practice has concentrated on thematic figurative works that are often as attractive as they are disturbing. His paintings allude to various expressions of duality, often dealing with opposing notions of hiding and fronting, ambiguity and androgyny, innocence and the erotic.
