Kristy Bowen
A writer & book artist, Kristy Bowen lives in Chicago, where she creates a variety of hybrid works and experiments that enfold text, collage, printmaking, painting, zines, installation, performance, film, and more. She is the author of numerous books, chapbooks, zines, and artists books, including CLOVEN, an upcoming collection of poems and collages centered around the Greek figure of Iphigenia. For the past two decades, she’s blogged about writing, art, horror films, thrifting, and other miscellany at DULCETLY: NOTES ON A BOOKISH LIFE. She also runs DANCING GIRL PRESS & STUDIO, where she makes and sells all manner of art, books, paper goods and accessories. Raised in the wilds of northern Illinois, she inhabits a beautiful, but drafty, art deco building near the lake with her cats, her husband, too many books, and a vast collection of thrifted finds–only some of which are haunted.
