The internet is a mental melting pot of society, where hopes, fears, and opinions merge together in unexpected ways. Navigating this space as an artist means traversing new territory.

In order to illustrate the spirit of the digital frontier on canvas, K. Guillory relies on observing video games through projected imagery and painting them in an impressionistic manner.

From Grace Myatt for Kailon Magazine:

​

Guillory’s blind contouring relies heavily on her intuition, consistently creating oil paintings that evoke a messy, tangled, bright, and human presence within a geometric, clean, and artificial digital space. She combines taking a quick screenshot with the practices of older art movements to create a human depiction of an inhuman space.

​

Guillory is also an accomplished graphic novelist and has won awards for her work. She has written in the past for Upload VR and Women Write About Comics.
