Los Angeles-based SAIC alumnus Kori Newkirk (BFA 1993) creates multimedia paintings, sculptural installations, and photographs that transform his materials into gestures toward the semiotics of cultural identity and his own personal/familial history. His work explores the meaning of the materials, bringing to light the ways in which the implications may be transformed as they are forged through cultural context.
