Kenneth Burris is a contemporary artist exploring the intersection of humanity, technology, and nature. Through a multi-disciplinary practice that spans physical painting, drawing, and digital media, Burris examines themes of identity, transformation, and the evolving digital landscape. His work merges tactile craftsmanship with futuristic concepts, bridging physical and virtual worlds.
Exhibited at venues such as the Hearst Gallery in New York and the Ethan Cohen Gallery, Burris’s work has also been featured in publications like Citadel 21 Magazine. A pioneer in integrating blockchain with physical art, he offers collectors an innovative, multi-dimensional experience.
Continuously evolving, Burris’s style reflects the very transformations his work seeks to explore, redefining the boundaries of art in a hybrid, digital future.
