Kristen DeGree lives in Iowa City, Iowa and is currently working towards a MFA in intermedia arts and printmaking. She was raised in North Dakota, where she developed an interest in landscapes, agriculture, and the quest for autonomy. She is interested in ferments: biotic, political, artistic and otherwise. Though she probably came to artmaking much earlier through the kitchen, she was officially drawn to art through printmaking: the collaborative environment of the print shop with its methods for spreading information cheaply and efficiently. Her love for print has more recently led to an intuitive shift towards video, sound, and social practice. She often works in collaboration with others, and is currently preoccupied by the language of the future.
