Kenya Cree
Kenya Moffett-Garner, A.K.A. Kenya Cree, is a ceramic sculptor and storyteller residing in the Austin neighborhood of Chicago. Drawing influence from African sculptural tradition, and specifically Benin bronze artifacts, her work follows a narrative she calls “The Space In-Between,” telling a story about the Black Diaspora and the fragility of Black life.
Kenya has been featured in CBS Chicago’s Black History Month Artist Series (2023), and at Expo Chicago 2024 as a featured artist with the Museum of Science and Industry’s Black Creativity Exhibition.
