Kit Mizeres has not long graduated from art school, but from viewing her work and being in the presence<br />

of the sheer power, sophistication and maturity of her artistic voice, one could be forgiven for thinking she<br />

has already benefited from a lifetime of creative expression. Having adopted a liberating lifestyle of nomadic<br />

freedom, Mizeres is constantly on the road, continually collecting a wealth of stories and experiences which help<br />

to inform her life choices and also her artistic explorations. Being close to nature all her life, and possessing both<br />

a boundless curiosity and a caring heart, it is only natural that at the core of her images lie messages of concern<br />

about how humanity asserts its dominance over the rest of the animal kingdom.<br />

Mizeres skillfully integrates these sentiments into her striking surrealism, along with her interest in personal<br />

folklore and the ironing out of her own internal struggles. The results are not only a rare treat for the eyes,<br />

but deliver an abundance of metaphorical stimulation and raise important topical questions about our species,<br />

which should not be overlooked. Kit Mizeres is an American artist and illustrator with no current fixed abode.<br />

She earned her BFA in Illustration from the Columbus College of Art and Design. Since graduating, Kit has been<br />

making serious waves within the New Contemporary Art scene and has exhibited her work in prominent galleries,<br />

such as Corey Helford Gallery in LA and Arch Enemy Arts in Philadelphia.<br />
