About the Artist

BIO
Kelly Thompson has been working as a graphic designer and visual artist for more than three decades. He received his Master’s Degree in painting from the Savannah College of Art and Design and continues to pursue his passion for art-making.
Kelly primarily works as a painter, sculptor, and print-maker using found objects and recycled materials as masks for painting with sprayed acrylic mediums. His current body of work
revolves around narratives of humanity’s symbiosis with technology, and imagining how those blurred boundaries may manifest.
He currently resides with his wife in historic Savannah, Georgia.
